Teacher as a stimulus for the development of students’ interests
Journal Title: Problemy Współczesnej Pedagogiki - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Already from the initial stages of education young people should be aware of threats and be sensitive to the beauty of nature because only proper influences exerted on tchem since early years of childhood give positive effects. Surveys have been conducted in order to seek an opinion as to the role of a teacher as a stimulus for developing students’ interests. The surveys have given an opportunity to diagnose the ways of shaping and developing interests in nature among children in their early years at school. An analysis of the collected information reveals that young children are curious about the world, and that is why they become familiar with it in a variety of ways, by means of images, speech and sounds. However, according to the respondents, it is the direct contact that brings more joy, satisfaction and pleasure out of discovering something new. It is a particularly important element of teaching, according to the principles of pro-environmental education, to undertake all actions in educational centres, whose aim is to stimulate the environmental awareness of young people, as well as to prepare the pedagogical staff to the implementation of the wide range of methods and strategies that allow to get the best results during the process of educating the young generation. The reform of the educational system creates new challenges for teachers and defines the rules of formation, adaptation and realisation of the educational programmes, including interdisciplinary programmes at all stages of education. It requires enormous knowledge, a creative attitude towards educational tasks, and moreover, the belief concerning the need for the modification of the ways of working. The requirements referring to the effects of the didactic and educational work are constantly increasing, and the contents, methods as well as the organisation of education are constantly changing.
