Abstract
The article presents the result of a study on overcoming risks in the formation of ecological culture among undergraduate students of a pedagogical university. Their readiness and ability to lead an ecological lifestyle and understanding of the essence of sustainable development and environmental policy of Russia, as well as their organization of their professional activities in the formation of the ecological worldview of schoolchildren. It is high-quality education and ecological consciousness that are the basis for sustainable personal and social development, which affects the formation of the ecological culture of all members of society. Therefore, ecological culture is the basis of activities to overcome complex environmental problems (both global and regional) and prevent their occurrence in the future. The study of ways and methods of overcoming risks in the formation of ecological culture is extremely important for Russia. Russia is striving to overcome the negative environmental consequences and to raise people with their professional activities who implement the ideas of sustainable development in life. One of the ways identified by the authors of the study is the organization of work of undergraduate students with online platforms: Stepik, Skillbox, GeekBrains, Coursera, Udemy. Open education is represented by electronic resources functioning at the pedagogical university that form an ecological culture. The article presents the results of a survey to identify the state of environmental culture among students of a pedagogical university and students of schools, leading to the conclusion that it is necessary to involve the ideas of “green” universities in the practice of teaching the younger generation. This will allow us to overcome risks in the formation of ecological culture in a new way in modern conditions of pedagogical universities. It will also contribute to improving the quality of life of the population in the conditions of sustainable development of society. The authors of the article associate the overcoming of most risks in the formation of environmental culture with the creation of conditions for improving the environmental training of a university student. To increase students ‘ motivation to study by means of solving research environmental-oriented tasks of a professionally applied orientation, the introduction of mathematical methods in solving environmental problems. Students develop mini-projects on environmental topics, prepare course and final qualifying works with environmental content, develop the content of educational practices. This allows you to simulate the professional activity of a teacher on the formation of ecological culture among students of schools, the participation of students in the All-Russian ecological quest «Share with us».
Highlights
Globalization, the growing power of transnational corporations and the competition of economic markets, the mobility of capital and human resources, the expansion of social and environmental risks are the main challenges in the first quarter of the XXI century [1]
Many scientists associate the deterioration of the environmental situation, which is especially relevant for such an industrial city as Chelyabinsk, with a low level of environmental culture of society as a whole
Glazachev [18]. 4th-year students – future teachers of physics, mathematics, computer science, primary school teachers and secondary school teachers, show a low level of environmental knowledge, insufficient understanding of existing environmental problems at the level of the city, region, region, country. Their knowledge is fragmentary and limited to the level of individual disciplines. They are not motivated to environmental protection activities, because the younger generation has formed only a consumer attitude to the environment, there are no systemic mechanisms for overcoming negative impacts on environmental safety, sustainable development, which reflects negative trends in the general context of the development of society
Summary
Globalization, the growing power of transnational corporations and the competition of economic markets, the mobility of capital and human resources, the expansion of social and environmental risks are the main challenges in the first quarter of the XXI century [1]. The increase in environmental risks by the beginning of the XXI century was associated with a systematic aggravation of environmental problems (environmental pollution, increased consumption of non-renewable resources, the formation of a planetary anthropogeocenosis, etc.), which allowed us to state not their localization, but the transition to a new stable state – the global environmental crisis. Overcoming the latter is connected with the policy in the field of socio-economic development carried out in the leading countries. The purpose and objective of the online course is to form students ' objective understanding of ecology from the point of view of culture in achieving the goal of ecology by mastering the topic «Ecology of the goal»
