Povzetek

V magistrskem delu nas je zanimal odnos učencev do okolja in njihova samoučinkovitost ter povezava med njima. V teoretičnem delu smo pregledali učne načrte predmetov v devetletni osnovni šoli, ki vključujejo učne cilje v povezavi z okoljem. Na ta način smo izvedeli, kaj v povezavi z okoljem se naučijo učenci v določenem razredu osnovne šole. Posameznik, ki verjame v svoje lastne sposobnosti in zmožnosti napredka, ima visoko stopnjo samoučinkovitosti. Takšen posameznik z lahkoto reši zadane naloge in si hitreje opomore ob neuspehih. Na drugi strani je odnos do okolja izoblikovan s prepričanji, vplivi in vedenjskimi namerami, ki jih posameznik pridobi z dejavnostmi in vprašanji, povezanimi z okoljem. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 190 učenk in učencev od 4. do 9. razreda osnovne šole na gorenjskem. Za raziskavo smo uporabili vprašalnik, ki je sestavljen iz treh delov: v prvem delu so učenci odgovarjali na vprašanja, povezana s samoučinkovitostjo. V drugem delu so odgovarjali na vprašanja, kako se vidijo v odnosu do okolja in v kolikšni meri se čutijo odgovorne za okolje, v tretjem delu so se vprašanja nanašala na zanimanje učencev za dodatne informacije v povezavi z ozonsko luknjo, učinkom tople grede, varčevanjem z energijo in drugimi temami, povezanimi z okoljem. V magistrskem delu smo uporabili deskriptivno metodo za pregled obstoječih raziskav in objav. S pomočjo kavzalno neeksperimentalne metode smo ugotavljali, kakšen je odnos učencev do okolja in v kolikšni meri so samoučinkoviti, da lahko tudi sami dajo prispevek k vzdržnemu okolju. Učenci od 4. do 9. razreda imajo v povprečju dober odnos do okolja (x ̅ = 3,29 na petstopenjski Likertovi lestvici). Najnižje so ocenili svoj odnos do okolja osmošolci s povprečno oceno x ̅ = 3,08, v povprečju so najvišje ocenili svoj odnos do okolja petošolci (x ̅ = 3,51). Najmanj zanimanja za okoljske teme je v povprečju pri učencih 7. (x ̅ = 3,38) in 8. razreda (x ̅ = 3,45), največ pa v povprečju pri učencih 4. (x ̅ = 4,12) in 5. razreda (x ̅ = 4,02). Povprečna ocena samoučinkovitosti od 4. (x ̅ = 4,35) do 9. razreda (x ̅ = 3,85) pada. Učenke so pri vseh postavkah o samoučinkovitosti v povprečju podale višjo oceno kot učenci, kar pomeni, da učenke bolj zaupajo v svoje sposobnosti, hkrati pa verjamejo, da lahko svoje sposobnosti izboljšajo. Izkazalo se je, da samoučinkovitost vpliva na odnos do okolja. Višja kot bo ocena samoučinkovitosti posameznika, boljši odnos do okolja bo lahko imel. Raziskava, predstavljena v magistrskem delu je namenjena učiteljem tehnike in tehnologije ter drugim učiteljem, saj razumejo, kakšne so povezave med samoučinkovitostjo in odnosom do okolja. Z dejavnostmi, ki spodbujajo rast samoučinkovitosti pri učencih lahko učitelji dosežejo višjo raven samoučinkovitosti in na ta način vplivajo na motivacijo in zaupanje na lastne sposobnosti učencev.

Sekundarni naslov: Environmental and technical awareness of pupils from 4th to 9th grade of elementary school
Sekundarni povzetek: This master's thesis studies the students’ attitude towards the environment, the students’ self efficiency, and the correlation between the two. In the theoretical part, we studied the lesson plans of subjects in a nine-year primary school programme, which include study goals related to the environment. By doing so, we discovered what pupils learn about the environment and in which grade. Individuals who trust in their own capabilities and abilities have a high level of self-efficiency. Such individuals are able to complete tasks with ease and find it easier to recover from failures. Additionally, the attitude towards the environment is shaped by convictions, influences, and behavioural intents that individuals acquire through activities and questions concerning the environment. Our research included 190 pupils from grades 4–9 of a primary school in the Gorenjska region. For this research, we prepared a questionnaire, which was divided into three parts: in the first part, the pupils answered questions about self-efficiency. In the second part, they answered questions about their views on their attitude towards the environment. The third part focused on the interest of pupils for additional questions regarding the ozone hole, the greenhouse effect, energy-saving techniques, and other environmental topics. In this master’s thesis, we used the descriptive method to study the existing research papers and publications. With the help of a causal non-experimental method, we were investigating the attitude of pupils towards the environment and to what extent they are self-efficient enough to contribute to a sustainable environment. On average, pupils from grades 4–9 have a good attitude towards the environment (x ̅ = 3.29 on a five-level Likert scale). Pupils from the 8th grade evaluated their attitude with the lowest score (x ̅ = 3.08) and pupils from the 5th grade with the highest score (x ̅ = 3.51). The pupils of the 7th (x ̅ = 3.38) and the 8th (x ̅ = 3.45) grade are the least interested in environmental topics, whereas pupils from the 4th (x ̅ = 4.12) and the 5th (x ̅ = 4.02) grade showed the most interest. The average self-efficiency score is dropping from the 4th (x ̅ = 4.35) to the 9th grade (x ̅ = 3.85). Female pupils gave themselves higher scores on average than their male counterparts, which means that they are more certain of their abilities and at the same time they believe that their capabilities can be improved. The results showed that self-efficiency has an effect on one’s attitude towards the environment; the higher the self-efficiency score, the better their attitude towards the environment will be. The research presented in this master's thesis is intended for teachers of technical class and other teachers who understand the correlation between self-efficiency and attitude towards the environment. With certain activities that encourage self-efficiency in pupils, teachers can achieve a higher level of self-efficiency and thus affect the motivation and self confidence of their pupils.
