Secondary title:	Wolf as a model organism for high school biology instruction
Secondary abstract:	The grey wolf (Canis lupus) is an endangered and protected animal species in Slovenia. The curriculum of the high school program incorporates the topic of acquainting students with the importance of preserving the diversity of organisms and the environment they live in. For this purpose, and as part of the SloWolf project, we prepared teaching materials on the wolf topic, intended to be used as part of the lessons in high schools. Students were asked to participate in a survey which was used to determine how the different approaches to teaching affect the students' attitudes and their knowledge of wolves. The survey, which was conducted on students of the first, second and third year of high school, revealed no statistically significant differences between the different teaching approaches, whether the experience based teaching method or the classic teaching method was in question. When this charismatic species is included in the biology curriculum, students tend to report a more positive point of view of wolves, as well as a higher degree of knowledge of this topic. The analysis of the results obtained should motivate biology and natural science teachers and professors to incorporate in their lessons also the teaching materials on wolves. The materials were conceived to be used in any phase of the high school education, and by that contribute to the increase in students' knowledge on wolves, and change their point of view of wolves. In this way teachers and professors can enable students to get to know the Slovenian wolf better, and make them aware of the necessity to protect this animal species.

Abstract (ePrints):	Volk (Canis lupus) je v Sloveniji ogrožena in z zakonom zaščitena živalska vrsta. Učni načrt za splošno gimnazijo predvideva, da se dijaki seznanijo s pomembnostjo ohranjanja različnih vrst organizmov ter ohranjanja okolja, v katerem ti organizmi živijo. V okviru projekta SloWolf smo v ta namen pripravili učna gradiva na temo volkov v Sloveniji ter gradiva uporabili med izvajanjem pouka v gimnaziji. Dijaki so reševali anketni vprašalnik, s katerim smo ugotavljali vpliv različnih izvedb pouka na stališča dijakov do volkov in znanje dijakov o volkovih. V raziskavi, ki smo jo izvedli v prvem, drugem in tretjem letniku splošne gimnazije, je sodelovalo 151 dijakov. Rezultati naše raziskave so pokazali, da ni statistično pomembnih razlik glede na vrsto izvedenega pouka, ali je to izkušenjski pouk, z uporabo bioloških materialov, ali klasičen pouk. Stališča dijakov do volkov so bolj pozitivna in samo znanje dijakov o volkovih je višje, če to karizmatično vrsto vključimo v pouk biologije. Analiza naših rezultatov naj motivira učitelje biologije ter naravoslovja, da v svoj pouk vključijo učna gradiva povezana z volkom. Učna gradiva so zasnovana tako, da jih lahko učitelji uporabijo v celotni vertikali gimnazijskega programa ter s tem gradijo na znanju dijakov o volkovih in spreminjajo stališča dijakov do volkov. Na ta način lahko dijakom približajo slovenskega volka ter jih ozaveščajo o nujnosti varovanja te živalske vrste.
