1.9% – confidence
1.9% – security
1.4% – fear
Therefore, such results highlight negative
feelings in the emotional and volitional sphere of
future elementary school teachers, they testify to
the concern and indifference of their locality to
the ecological state. Emotionality in the
perception of the surrounding nature by future
primary school teachers most often indicated
such emotions as joy (21.4%) and pleasure
(22.5%). And insignificantly – for emotions of
excitement (8.8%), beauty (9.4%), harmony
(9.1%), irritation (6.8%), curiosity (4.4%),
sadness (6.3 %), boundless sadness (4.3%),
indifference (2.7%), shame (4.3%), So, 65% of
future primary school teachers showed emotions
of beauty, beauty, harmony, which is the basis of
environmental awareness and 35.1% of future
primary school teachers have negative emotions.
Taking into account the chosen specialty of the
future primary school teacher, these indicators
testify to the positive attitude of students toward
nature, and only a third of respondents chose
indifference, sadness, and irritation, which
indicates an attitude towards nature. So, the
research suggests that nature is included in the
point of view of their interests, needs, and goals
in the category of the most valuable orientations
among the majority of respondents.
So, based on the analysis of the typological
features of the ecological consciousness of future
primary school teachers, it can be concluded that
this phenomenon exists in close interaction with
all forms of social consciousness, and has an
independent scientific status, which consists in
the interaction of society and nature. To ensure
the effectiveness of the formation of
environmental consciousness of future primary
school teachers, it is necessary that upbringing
and environmental education are aimed at
transforming the value characteristics, skills,
knowledge, principles, ideals, and attitudes
toward the nature of the whole society into the
internal worldview plan of the individual.
We, to form the ecological awareness of future
primary school teachers, have allocated
environmental educational activities, practical
training, educational work with students,
environmental psychological training, and the
creation of ecological pedagogical projects.
During the experimental period, different
teaching methods, forms, and different work
tools were used. Environmental-pedagogical
projects, which contributed to the formation of
environmental awareness of future primary
school specialists, played a significant role in
solving clearly defined problems. While
preparing the material for the project, the
students studied psychological and pedagogical
literature, a significant volume of scientific
environmental literature, applied material from
practice, and participated in student conferences,
scientific discussions, and round tables.
During the formation of ecological
consciousness, it was assumed that students of
higher education would be familiarized with the
content of ecological consciousness and its
structure. Ecological awareness is represented
from two positions. The first position is based on
the acquired experience of ecological existence,
a person's awareness of a mental sense of
personal responsibility. The second position is
the phenomenon of ecological consciousness in
the system "society – nature".
The students discussed the three-component
structure of environmental awareness, its
varieties, the main approaches in preparing future
primary school teachers for the formation of
environmental awareness, the principles that
ensure the development of the environmental
awareness of primary school teachers, the
components of environmental awareness
(technological, managerial, communicative).
During the experimental work, great importance
was attached to the application of project
activities for forming environmental awareness
among primary school teachers.
When studying professional disciplines, work
with information was given a creative ecological
character: students of education had the
opportunity to define an ecological-pedagogical
problem in the content of the work, draw up an
activity plan, develop their own methods of
solving ecological-pedagogical tasks, put
forward a hypothesis based on evaluative
judgments, write conclusions to creative work
and make generalizations; to analyze the work of
other students and self-analysis of one's own
activity.
Great attention was paid to: the content of
ecological material, clarity, the possibility of
considering the studied concept in various
aspects, the application of situational and
problematic tasks, the formation of intellectual
skills in students, conducting reflective training
of students, where they creatively approached the
solution of ecological and pedagogical tasks,
group reflections (video reflections – analysis of
