摘要: 本研究采用访谈法，通过对访谈结果的整理归纳和分析，从幼儿对环境保护概念的认知、原因认知、结果认知和情境认知四个方面进行了研究。研究结果显示：76%被试幼儿能够通过在具体事例中描述原因、结果的方式来为环境保护下定义；56%被试幼儿所认识的环境保护原因是单维度的；74%被试幼儿也能够认识到环境保护后产生的结果；幼儿环境保护的认知不存在明显的性别差异。在此研究结果的基础上，研究者对幼儿园的环保教育提出了一些建议。

问题的提出

　　我们都知道幼儿园是幼儿环保教育的重要场所，如今的幼儿大多是独生子女，没有节约的意识，铺张浪费，乱扔果皮纸屑，摘花踩草的现象屡屡不断地发生。但是，幼儿喜欢模仿,可塑性大，保护环境必须从幼儿抓起。环境保护已越来越被人们所重视，提高环保意识已成为当前教育的重点。环保教育应从娃娃抓起的实践已被人们所认同，孩子是我们每个家庭的未来，更是国家的未来，对孩子加强环保教育，意义重大而深远。新《纲要》中也明确指出：幼儿园应培养孩子爱护动植物、关心周围环境，亲近大自然，珍惜自然资源的美好情感，具有初步的环境保护意识。但是在现实生活中，环境保护成了一种形式教育、口头教育。要让幼儿形成环境保护的意识之前，要先了解幼儿对环境保护的认知到了哪种水平。目前很多幼儿园已经对幼儿进行了环境保护教育，也采取了一定的措施，同时让幼儿参与环保行动，但是在做这些事情前我认为应该要对幼儿的环境保护的认知水平做初步的分析，只有在了解幼儿对环境保护的认知特点后，才能对幼儿进行正确的环保教育。
