concerned with the quality of education, including early childhood
education, in the United States. While more than 50% of the

preschool and kindergarten programs in the United States, no state,
federal, or national standards exist for science or technology
education in preschool or kindergarten programs. Knowledge about
science and technology is an important requirement for all in
contemporary society. An increasing number of professions require
the use of scientific concepts and technological skills and society
as a whole depends on scientific knowledge. Scientific and
technological knowledge should be a part of every individual's
education. There are many ways to enhance young children's
scientific thinking and problem-solving skills as well as their
technological abilities. The purpose of this volume is to present a
critical analysis of reviews of research on science and technology
education in early childhood education.The first part of the volume
includes contributions by leading scholars in science, while the

technology.
