Using the project methodology to improve environmental education for students of technical specialties

Abstract

Abstract Environmental education of students of technical specialties should take into account the features of their future specialty. Within the framework of economic activity, humanity has a significant impact on the state of the environment. Natural resources, which took millions of years to form, are used in the production of various material goods. This production process leads to negative phenomena associated with the destruction of the fragile natural balance. In addition to the impact of biocenosis, economic activity also worsens the environmental situation and has a negative impact on the existence of human civilization itself. For effective public control and monitoring of the state of the natural environment, the necessary conditions are the availability of environmental education among the population and the training of technical specialists capable of solving various environmental problems. The project form of training allows to increase the efficiency of specialists of technical specialties. And the use of projects related to environmental problems in the learning process gives students the opportunity to supplement their environmental knowledge. The poor environmental situation is the main reason for the decrease in the level of immune status and the increase in morbidity in the population. The sustainable development of human society can be achieved only if a dynamic balance is established between the needs of man and the ability of nature to self-repair.
