A Study of Early Childhood Teachers' Professional Development and Teaching Effectiveness Enhancement from the Perspective of Educational Psychology

Abstract

Early childhood teachers are the backbone of preschool education, and they play a crucial role in young children's learning and development. However, faced with increasingly complex educational environments and the diverse learning needs of young children, early childhood teachers need to continuously update and develop their professional knowledge and skills to provide the best quality education. In this process, educational psychology provides guidance and support for early childhood teachers through the study of learning, development, and knowledge of psychological processes and environmental factors. Based on the perspective of educational psychology, the article synthesizes the research on professional development and teaching efficacy enhancement of early childhood teachers, to provide some useful references and insights for practitioners in related fields.
