Changing primary school students' attitude, interest and knowledge about poisonous animals |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
Teaching in schools is becoming increasingly aimed at learning based on experience. The purpose of our research was to ascertain how pupils in the seventh and eight classes of primary school assess fear and disgust towards poisonous animals and several other animals. We also studied the influence of experience-based and classic teaching on the attitude of pupils towards poisonous animals, their knowledge about them and interest in learning about them. For this purpose, we prepared lessons which involved work with living animals (experience-based teaching) and lessons utilising pictorial material (classic learning). Experience-based teaching comprised two lessons and classic only one. One hundred and twenty-three pupils from the same primary school took part in the research. The pupils’ knowledge of poisonous animals and their attitude towards them before and after the lesson (two weeks after them) were studied. A greater change in the scientific category of attitude towards poisonous animals was seen in the pupils who had worked with living animals than those who had not been exposed to them. The change in the scientific category of attitude was also greater in the pupils who already had direct experience with poisonous animals than those who did not have such experience. Previous direct experience and work with animals in class had no impact on their knowledge. Pupils most often said that they were afraid of the scorpion, black widow and the nose-horned viper. They were most disgusted by ticks, mosquitoes, toads and spiders. Pupils who had worked with living animals in class showed a greater interest in learning about poisonous animals than those who had not worked with living animals. The results were aimed at motivating teachers to begin including more living animals in class since such a method of work has many positive effects. |

Pouk v šolah vedno bolj teži k temu, da se učenci učijo ob izkušnji. V naši raziskavi smo ugotavljali, kako učenci sedmega in osmega razreda osnovne šole ocenjujejo gnus do strupenih in še nekaterih drugih živali ter strah pred njimi. Ugotavljali smo tudi vpliv izkušenjskega in klasičnega učenja na odnos učencev do strupenih živali, na njihovo znanje o strupenih živalih in zanimanje za učenje o strupenih živalih. V ta namen smo zasnovali pouk, pri katerem smo delali z živimi živalmi (izkušenjsko učenje), in pouk, pri katerem smo namesto živih živali uporabili slikovno gradivo (klasično učenje). Pri izkušenjskem učenju je pouk trajal dve šolski uri, pri klasičnem učenju pa eno šolsko uro. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 123 učencev ene osnovne šole. Pri učencih smo preverili znanje o strupenih živalih in odnos do strupenih živali pred in po pouku (dva tedna po pouku). Učenci, ki so pri pouku delali z živimi živalmi, so po pouku izkazali višjo spremembo pri znanstveni kategoriji odnosa do strupenih živali kot učenci, ki se pri pouku niso seznanili z živimi živalmi. Tudi učenci s predhodno neposredno izkušnjo s strupenimi živalmi so izkazali višjo spremembo pri znanstveni kategoriji odnosa kot učenci, ki takšne izkušnje niso imeli. Na znanje predhodna neposredna izkušnja in delo z živalmi pri pouku nista vplivala. Učenci so največkrat navajali, da se bojijo škorpijona, črne vdove in modrasa, najbolj pa so se jim je gnusili klop, komar, krastača in pajek. Učenci, ki so pri pouku srečali žive živali, so po pouku izkazali večje zanimanje za učenje o strupenih živalih kot pa učenci, ki živih živali pri pouku niso srečali. Rezultati naj bi učitelje motivirali, da začnejo v pouk vključevati več živih živali, saj ima tak način dela veliko pozitivnih učinkov. |
