人間教育に資する「幼小接続期カリキュラム」のあり方―「とまどいマトリクス」を活用した接続カリキュラムの改善―

摘要

It has been clarified what are the difficulties in preparing an “infancy-childhood bridging curriculum,” but itcannot be said that the process of preparing it has been sufficiently studied. In this study, I analyzed the essential factorsfor improving an “infancy-childhood bridging curriculum.” As a result, I found the three points below in the use of the“confusion matrix” regarding improvement in an infancy-childhood bridging curriculum for greater contribution to thehuman education.（1） The confusion matrix can be a tool for consensus formation within a kindergarten for improving the infancy-childhood bridgingcurriculum.（2） The confusion matrix makes it possible to improve the infancy-childhood bridging curriculum according to the actual states ofchildren.（3） The improvement of the infancy-childhood bridging curriculum allows advertising the characteristic feature of kindergartenelementaryschool linkage.The following two points should be further studied in the future.Firstly, creation and improvement in the “start curriculum” inelementary school have not been clarified. Secondly, the view point of improvement in the bridging period curriculum has not beenclarified. For this, it is necessary to investigate on establishment of kindergarten-school ties by studying how the kindergartens andschools with the infancy-childhood bridging curriculum have changed over years.
