Odnos mladostnikov do biologije

Lavtižar, Teja (author), Strgar, Jelka (mentor)

Projekt ROSE je obsežna raziskava, ki preverja veliko dejavnikov, ki lahko vplivajo na odnos učencev do naravoslovja in tehnologije. V naši raziskavi smo se osredotočili samo na nekatere vidike, ker nas je zanimalo ožje področje biologije, in preverili, v katero smer se razvija odnos do biologije med našimi osnovnošolci. Namen magistrskega dela je bil ugotoviti, kakšen je odnos mladostnikov do biologije kot vede in biologije kot šolskega predmeta, kako zahteven se učencem zdi predmet biologija ter kakšno je njihovo mnenje o pouku biologije. Preverili smo tudi medsebojno povezanost učencev v razredu in dejavnike, ki so za učence pomembni pri izbiri poklica. Sodelovalo je 351 učencev iz treh osnovnih šol (8. in 9. razred) in dijakov iz ene srednje šole (1. in 2. letnik). Podatke smo zbrali z anketnim vprašalnikom s 87 trditvami, ki so jih anketiranci ocenjevali z Likertovo lestvico. Ugotovili smo, da imajo osnovnošolci in srednješolci do biologije pozitiven odnos, zavedajo se njenega pomena in v šoli se jim ne zdi zahtevna. Pokazala se je razlika med osnovnošolci in srednješolci različne starosti v odnosu do biologije, mnenju o njeni zahtevnosti in o njenem pomenu. Med dekleti in fanti se je pokazala razlika pri odnosu do biologije in pri mnenju o pomenu biologije, pri mnenju o zahtevnosti biologije pa razlike ni bilo. Dejavniki, ki so pomembni za bodoči poklic, se povezujejo z odnosom do biologije, mnenjem o zahtevnosti biologije in mnenjem o pomenu biologije.

Abstract

ROSE project is a comprehensive study in which students' attitudes towards Science and Technology affected by many factors have been examined. In our study, only some aspects have been focused due to a narrower field of biology which has been interested in, and the direction of the attitude between Biology to elementary school students has been checked. The purpose of the master's work has been to determine the attitude of the teenagers to Biology as science and Biology as a school subject, how demanding the students find the subject of Biology and what is their opinion of the Biology teaching. The connection of the students in the classroom and the factors of a great importance for the students in choosing a profession have also been examined. A total of 351 students from three elementary schools (8th and 9th grade) and students from one high school (1st and 2nd year) have taken part. Data have been collected in the 87-statement-questionnaire and assessed by respondents with the Likert scale. A positive attitude to Biology of primary and secondary schools students and their awareness of the importance of Biology and not finding Biology in school difficult have been found out. A difference between elementary and high school students of different ages in relation to Biology, to the complexity of Biology and the importance of Biology has been shown. A difference between girls and boys in relation to Biology and the view of the importance of Biology have been shown while a difference in the complexity of Biology has not been shown. Factors relevant to future careers, the attitude towards Biology, the opinion of the complexity of Biology and the importance of Biology are linked.
