Abstract

Volk (Canis lupus) je dandanes eden najbolj razširjenih sesalcev na svetu, saj naseljuje celotno Evropo, dobršen del Azije in Severne Amerike, najdemo pa ga tudi na Arktiki. Kot drugi največji predstavnik plenilcev pri nas, ima izredno pomembno vlogo v naravi, kot tudi za ljudi. Je pokazatelj dobro ohranjene in neokrnjene narave, s plenjenjem pa znatno vpliva na ohranjanje naravnega ravnovesja in biotske pestrosti. V preteklosti je poseljeval večji del Evrazije, vse do Indije in Kitajske na jugu, ko so ga v 19. in 20. stoletju iztrebili iz celotnega osrednjega in severnega dela Evrope. Dolgo so se za pobijanje volkov izplačevale tudi nagrade, zato je njihova populacija v tem obdobju naraščala in upadala, kar je konec 20. stoletja privedlo do skorajšnjega izumrtja vrste. Danes je volk zavarovana vrsta, tako na državnem kot tudi mednarodnem nivoju in odkar je popolnoma zavarovan njegova številčnost raste. V Sloveniji nikoli ni bil v celoti iztrebljen, zato današnja slovenska populacija volka predstavlja eno redkih avtohtonih populacij, ki še živijo v Evropi. Ohranitev volka v Sloveniji je pogojena z odnosom ljudi do velikih zveri, zato je pomembno, da z naravoslovnim izobraževanjem učencev vplivamo na izoblikovanje pozitivnih stališč do volkov. Slovenija namreč predstavlja most med Dinarskim gorstvom in Alpami, zato je ohranitev avtohtone populacije volkov ključnega pomena za širjenje le teh v Zahodno Evropo. V diplomski nalogi smo želeli ugotoviti, kakšna so stališča dijakinj in dijakov srednje strokovne šole in strokovne gimnazije do volkov. Želeli smo ugotoviti tudi ali obstajajo razlike v stališčih do volkov med dijakinjami in dijaki, med dijakinjami in dijaki višjih oz. nižjih letnikov srednje strokovne šole in strokovne gimnazije ter med dijakinjami in dijaki z višjo oz. nižjo oceno pri predmetu biologije. Rezultati naše raziskave so pokazali, da obstajajo statistično pomembne razlike v stališčih do volkov glede na spol anketirancev, saj smo ugotovili, da imajo dijakinje bolj pozitivna stališča in odnos do volkov z vidika varovanja in zaščite te vrste kot dijaki, ki pa so bolj pozitivna stališča do volkov izrazili glede na interakcijo z njimi. Razlike v stališčih glede na letnik srednje šole in oceno pri predmetu biologije pa niso bile tako izrazite, kar je lahko posledica nizke stopnje obravnave tematike o volkovih, tako v osnovni kot tudi srednji šoli.

Secondary title: Vocational high school students' attitudes toward wolves
Secondary abstract: The grey wolf (Canis lupus) is one of the most widespread mammals in the world today, as it inhabits the whole of Europe, most of the territory of Asia and North America, and it can even be found in the Arctic. Being the second biggest predator in our country, it has an immensely important part in nature as well as in human life. Its presence indicates a well preserved and pristine nature. Furthermore, the predation is a significant factor in preserving the natural balance and biodiversity. The past times saw the wolf roam most of Europe and Asia all the way to India and China in the South, but it was eradicated from the part of Middle and North Europe in the 19th and 20th centuries. Rewards were offered for each wolf kill for a long time and this lead to fluctuation of the population in that period and it brought the wolf to the brink of extinction. The wolf is a protected species nowadays, both, in our country as well as internationally and since it was granted the status of a protected species, its numbers have been increasing. The wolf was never completely extinct in Slovenia, so that today's population represents one of the few autochthonous populations living in Europe. The preservation of the wolf in Slovenia is induced by the people's mindset of great beasts, which is why it is important to educate the students in order for them to form a positive mindset towards the wolf as well. Slovenia is the bridge between the Alps and the Dinarides, and that is why it is vital to maintain the autochthonous population, so the wolf can spread into Western Europe. The diploma paper's main goal was to determine the attitudes of students of the high school towards the wolf. We set out to determine if there were any differences in attitudes between female and male students, the attitudes between students of lower and higher levels, and between students who have lower and higher grades at biology classes. The results have shown that there are statistically important discrepancies in the attitudes towards wolves when it comes to gender, as the female students nurture more positive mindsets and attitudes towards the wolf from the point of view of protection of the species that the male students, who are more positive about the interaction with the wolf. In terms of high school levels and biology class grades, we have found that the differences are minimal which might be a consequence of a low level of topic examination, in both, elementary and high schools.
