Zanimanje osnovnošolcev Štajerske za uporabne rastline

Jurjevec Štok, Barbara (avtor), Strgar, Jelka (mentor)

Rastline so živa bitja, ki so izredno pomembna za življenje na našem planetu. V številnih raziskavah so ugotovili, da ljudi bolj privlačijo in se jim zdijo zanimivejše živali, kot rastline. Danes razsaja bolezen ››rastlinska slepota‹‹, saj rastlin sploh ne opazimo več, so le del našega vsakdana ali ozadje na naših fotografijah. Poslanstvo šole je, da rastline in živali predstavi čimbolj enakovredno. Namen diplomskega dela je bilo ugotoviti, katere lastnosti uporabnih rastlin so tiste, ki se zdijo učencem zanimivejše in bi bile z motivacijskega vidika uporabne pri pouku biologije in naravoslovja. Uporabili smo anonimni anketni vprašalnik s 17 vprašanji, ki ga je izpolnilo 361 učencev štirih starostnih skupin (od 6. do 9. razreda) in iz dveh osnovnih šol (OŠ Polzela in OŠ Žalec). Na OŠ Polzela je anketo izpolnilo 186 učencev, na OŠ Žalec pa 175 učencev. Učenci so pokazali nadpovprečno zanimanje za 11 od 15 rastlinskih tem. Postavili smo dve hipotezi. Pri prvi hipotezi smo predpostavili, da se mlajšim osnovnošolcem zdijo zanimive druge uporabne rastline, kot starejšim osnovnošolcem. To hipotezo smo sprejeli, saj smo našli devet statističnih razlik od petnajstih. Pri drugi hipotezi pa smo predpostavili, da se dekletom zdijo zanimive druge uporabne rastline kot fantom. Tudi to hipotezo smo sprejeli, ker smo našli deset statistično pomembnih razlik od petnajstih.

Izvleček

Plants are living organisms with an enormous importance in sustaining the life on our planet. However, numerous researchers conclude that people are far more attracted to animals than plants. They claim that people are suffering from 'plant blindness' and that plants are no more but a background of our everyday life. But in schools it is important that plants and animals this diploma, was to reveal which characteristics of useful plants students find more interesting and could therefore be used to motivate them in studying natural sciences. An anonymous questionnaire was used, containing 17 questions. Questionnaire was given to 361 students from 6th to 9th grade from two primary schools: 186 participating students were from Primary school in Polzela and 175 from Primary school in Žalec. Students exhibited above average interest in 11 out of 15 plant themes. Two hypothesis were made. First hypothesis proposed that younger students and older students differ in the types of useful plants they find interesting. This hypothesis was confirmed, after establishing nine out of fifteen statistically important differences. Second hypothesis proposed that male and female students differ in the types of useful plants they find interesting. This hypothesis was also confirmed: ten out of fifteen statistically important differences were established.
