In the context of nationwide reading, parent-child reading is an important way to stimulate children's interest in books and cultivate good reading habits, and the realization of deep-learning in reading is the value pursuit of today's core literacy education. Dialogic Reading is a proven method to promote children's development in many aspects. Previous studies were mainly applied to foreign countries and focused on the impact of Dialogic Reading on children's language development. But at present, there is a lack of research to explore parent-child dialogic reading intervention programs suitable for Chinese parents, as well as the impact of intervention programs on Chinese parents' mastery of dialogue reading strategies and on children's deep-learning.
Guided by the caregiver training model (TMCR model) and taking the Dialogic Reading strategies as the main contents, this study designed and implemented an intervention plan for parent-child book reading, explored the suitability and effectiveness of the intervention plan, and adopted the Lag Sequential Analysis (LSA) to explore the dialogue process in parent-child reading after the intervention. Based on the research results, this paper puts forward relevant suggestions for parent-child reading training in the future, and provides educational practice reference for inventors and parents.
In order to explore the efficacy of parent-child dialogic reading intervention program to achieve children's deep learning, this study has three research questions. Study 1 aims to explore the suitability of parent-child dialogic reading intervention program to achieve deep learning for preschool children; Based on the intervention plan of study 1, Study 2 conducted experimental research to explore the impact of intervention plan on parents' ability to use strategies and children's learning level, so as to verify the effectiveness of intervention plan. Based on the parent-child reading videos of Study 2, Study 3 analyzed the behavioral sequence relationship between parents' questions and children's responses at different learning levels, and explored the behavioral patterns of parent-child reading before and after intervention
Study 1 first designed and improved the intervention program, the parent-child dialogic reading intervention program. Then carried out pre-intervention for 6 families. Parental Satisfaction, Parent-child Reading Experience, Parent-child Relationship and pre-intervention effect were used to judge the suitability of the intervention program. The results showed that: 6 groups of families have high parental satisfaction and good parent-child reading experience; Parent-child relationship feeling improved after intervention. Parents use more dialogic reading strategies after intervention, and children's deep-learning level was further realized after intervention.
In Study 2, 63 groups of families were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. First, the researchers collected parent-child reading videos of the two groups of families before the intervention, and coded the parents' strategies and children's learning level in each video. At the same time, this study collected the basic information of family. Then, the parents of the experimental group were subjected to the intervention program. After the intervention, parent-child reading videos of the two groups of families were collected and coded analysis was conducted again. The results showed that: (1) In the pre-test, there was no significant difference in the use of strategies among parents in different groups, no significant difference in the learning level of children in different groups, and no significant difference in the basic information of families in different groups. (2) In the post-test, there were significant differences in parents' skill use and children's deep learning level between the two groups (p>0.05), and parents' skill use and children's deep learning level in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The parents of the experimental group showed significant difference in pre and post test results (p<0.05), the use of post-test skills was significantly higher than that of the pre-test, and the parents of the control group had no significant difference in pre and post test results (p>0.05). The results of pre and post test of children in the experimental group showed significant difference (p<0.05), and the level of deep learning in the post test was significantly higher than that in the pre-test, while there was no significant difference in the control group (p>0.05).
In Study 3, 17 videos in the pre-test and 31 videos in the post-test were analyzed by using the Lag Sequential Analysis (LSA). The results showed that: (1) Before intervention, parents' question strategy would affect children's learning level, and children's learning level will affect parents' use of strategy. There were 14 typical behavioral sequences. (2) After intervention, there were 33 kinds of typical behavior sequences between parents and children, which increased in variety and quantity compared with the pre-test. Obviously, parents can use more types of questions to respond to their children's answers, but their ability to adjust strategies according to their children's current learning level is still weak, and more parent-child reading practice is needed.
The above research found that the parent-child dialogic reading intervention program designed based on the caregiver training model (TMCR model) and dialogue reading strategy is of great significance in improving parents' strategy use and realizing children's deep learning. The use of the program should be further promoted, and the program should be continuously improved according to the actual needs and abilities of parents, so as to further enhance the effect of the intervention program, improve parents' parent-child reading ability, and promote the development of children during parent-child reading.
