Item Anthropomorphizing Nature as a Tool for Environmental Education. Opinions of Pedagogy Students in the Context of Represented Environmental Ethics(UKSW, 2023) Kozłowska, Agnieszka; Czapla, MałgorzataThe purpose of the study was to check pedagogy students’ opinions on using anthropomorphizing nature for the development of pro-environmental knowledge and behaviour in the context of their own environmental ethics orientations. An online survey for university pedagogy students from Poznan, Poland, was conducted. N=221 respond-ents, of whom 97% were women, filled out the questionnaires. Descriptive statistics were used for closed questions on students’ opinions about using anthropomorphizing nature for environmental education. To find out the respondents’ environmental ethics orientations, content analysis of answers to open questions was used, applying theory-based cat-egories of environmental orientations derived from environmental ethics (anthropocentrism, biocentrism). The findings revealed that the majority of students believe that anthropomorphism of nature helps in the development of pro-envi-ronmental behaviour (62.4%) and knowledge (55.8%). In justification, most (63.8%) presented anthropocentric attitudes; 27.5% of answers were biocentric, and 8.8% – mixed eclectic. According to the other questions the respondents supported biocentric environmental norms. Their justifications, however, again revealed mostly anthropocentric motivations 63.2%. Conclusion: Pedagogy students, although they support biocentric norms, believe that anthropomorphism of nature will be the right tool for environmental education, and use anthropocentric arguments in their justifications. In their future pedagogical practice, they will rather develop anthropocentric orientations in children, building positive attitudes to-wards nature on (false) belief in similarities of human and non-human living organisms, instead of recognition of their “otherness” and intrinsic value.Item PERSPECTIVES OF EDUCATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT – UNDERSTANDING AND INTRODUCING THE NOTION IN POLISH EDUCATIONAL DOCUMENTS(Discourse and Communication for Sustainable Education, 2011) Czapla, Małgorzata; Berlińska, AgnieszkaThe aim of this article is to present an analysis of formal educational documents in the context of the sustainable development notion. This goal was realised by an analysis of the National Curriculum Framework documents from 2002 in comparison with the newest document from 2008. In addition, seven teaching programmes were analysed. On the grounds of the sustainable development definition and in the context of UNECE Strategy of Education for Sustainable Development, a list of direct and indirect linguistic indicators was created. To count the key words, the text editor Adobe Reader 9.0 was used. In the oldest version of the National Curriculum Framework, the key words defining sustainable development or their components occurred 119 times, in the newest – 165 times. The new version covers the scope of sustainable development in a wider range.Item Sprawozdanie z Międzynarodowej e-Konferencji Naukowo-Metodycznej „Prawo dziecka do wypoczynku i czasu wolnego”(Polskie Stowarzyszenie Dalton, 2023) Kozłowska, Agnieszka; Czapla, MałgorzataRozważania podjęte podczas konferencji ukazują wysoką wartość czasu wolnego dla wszechstronnego rozwoju dzieci. Przekonują o potrzebie świadomego i celowego zarzą dzania warunkami i sposobami spędzania przez dzieci czasu wolnego. Środowisko naukowe dostarcza wielu dowodów na to, że swobodna zabawa i spędzanie czasu zgodnie z własnymi pomysłami dzieci słu ży ich rozwojowi. Jednak przesłaniem kon ferencji było podkreślenie, że nie pożytecz ność takiego zachowania jest powodem za bezpieczenia dzieciom swobody spędzania, ale że jest to ich niezbywalne prawo gwa rantowane Konwencją o Prawach Dziecka. Temat konferencji pozostaje obiecującym i niewyczerpanym przedmiotem dociekań naukowych, a spotkanie kilkudziesięciu spe cjalistów w tym obszarze otworzyło dodat kowe pola do badań i rozważań naukowych.
