Abstract
Currently, there are a variety of the early education products in the market. A strict approach for classification of these products, however, is generally absent. But even so, any kind of the early education products are indeed built on the same principle that almost all devisers are making attempts to attract users for participation and experience from the three aspects–the visual sense, the auditory sense and the sense of touch. The way for experience is also limited to some certain operant behavior including “press”, “twist” and “thump”. Due to the fact that young children are the targeted users for the early education products and because of their unique characteristics—the so-called “realistic feature” embedded into their intelligence, their behavioral norms are conspicuously distinguishing from adults. It is therefore that the development of related products should not be conducted in the logical way of adults. It is proper to cultivate the cognitive ability, judgment and logics of infants in a simplistic and pleasant context and circumstances.
This research will delve into behavior from a perspective of Semantics by initiating a study on “Form”, which is the carrier for products’ semanteme. Experimental data of a series of early education products will be reviewed for reference and for making contributions to the quantitative research on the influence of forms on behavior. Three key concepts, which are the “form”, the “semanteme” and the “behavior”, will also be effectively integrated into and contributing to the two new concepts, the “Behavioral Semanteme Form” and the “Semanteme Form Model”. The research aims at providing the entire and detailed explanations to the formation, structural characteristics and category of the semanteme by adopting the operable and controllable approaches.
