"双减"政策背景下城乡青少年科普教育的差异与对策OA

Against the backdrop of the"Double Reduction"policy,promoting balanced science education has emerged as a critical imperative for enhancing adolescents'scientific literacy.Taking Guihuayuan Primary School(Ziyuan Campus)in the urban district and Dujizhen Central Primary School in Changfeng County as case studies,this paper analyzes disparities between urban and rural primary schools regarding facilities,teaching staff,curriculum implementation,and family support,based on 111 valid questionnaires and interview data.The results indicate that 38.46％of the urban school's facilities include fully equipped laboratories,whereas 26.92％of the village-level school lacks laboratories entirely.In terms of instructional frequency,65.38％of urban students participated in science experiment classes ten or more times per semester,compared to 73.08％of rural students who attended fewer than ten times.Regarding staffing,the allocation rate of full-time science teachers in the urban school was 65.38％,significantly higher than the 42.31％in the rural school.At the family level,83.78％of urban families accompanied their children to science venues,while 95.74％of rural families relied primarily on school-based curricula.The study demonstrates that the urban-rural gap significantly constrains the balanced development of science popularization education.Accordingly,this paper proposes countermeasures including policy guarantees,resource allocation to lower-tier institutions,teacher development,and home-school-community collaboration,providing empirical references for improving scientific literacy and advancing educational equity.
