I INTRODUCTION

Environmental education now forms an important component in the school curriculum. I t is imparted to the student from year one to f ive through an integrated curriculum referred to as environmental studies and through 'introductory science' which commences from year four . At the secondary school l eve l , from years s ix to eleven environmental education is incorporated into the respective s y l l a b i of science, soc ia l s tudies , health and even a r t to provide the student with a mult id isc ipl inary approach. In the 'A' Level c la s se s , i t is included in the sy l labus of the students of b io logy .

However, organizations concerned with environmental education have noted that this increase in the importance of environmental education in the formal education system, is not su f f i c i en t ly ref lected in the school going ch i ld ' s knowledge and att i tudes with respect to environmental i ssues . Therefore, a ser ies of workshops to identify Problems and Constraints to the Ef fect ive Dissemination of Environmental/Conservation Education a t School Level was jo int ly organized by the Natural Resources, Energy and Science Authority (NARESA) and March for Conservation (MfC) , a non-governmental organizat ion, in consultation with the National Inst i tute of Education ( N I E ) . The 1st workshop was held in December 1989 in Colombo, at the

NARESA Auditorium. This workshop, which is the second in the ser ies was held at St . Aloysius Col lege , Gal le on 20th October 1990 at which approximately 33 teachers from 20 schools within the Southern Province part ic ipated .

Schools were selected for possible part ic ipat ion at this workshop with the assistance of the NIE. The pr inc ipals of these schools were then requested to nominate two teachers involved in environmental education from years 6-9 in their respective schools . The part ic ipants were f i n a l l y selected on the basis of their response to a questionnaire c irculated by NARESA to the nominees. At the Colombo workshop, the problems and constraints that teachers faced in imparting environmental education e f f ec t i ve ly , e spec ia l ly with regard to att i tude building of students, and the assistance required by them for this purpose were ident i f ied in general . At the second workshop the aim was to obtain information of a more spec i f ic nature than previously , on the apparent plethora of problems which these teachers appeared to face , and to obtain recommendations to rec t i fy them. During the discussions the teachers were expected to e laborate on their response to the preliminary questionnaire c irculated to them by NARESA, and to discuss whether the problems identif ied at the Colombo Workshop were appl icable to their schools as w e l l .

The main o b j e c t i v e s of the second workshop were s i m i l a r to t h o s e of the former. They were t o :

(1) a s s e s s the l e v e l of environmental e d u c a t i o n a t s c h o o l l e v e l in the Southern p r o v i n c e .

(2) i d e n t i f y the problems and c o n s t r a i n t s encountered by t e a c h e r s barr ing e f f e c t i v e t each ing of c o n s e r v a t i o n / e n v i r o n m e n t a l e d u c a t i o n in s c h o o l s and to i d e n t i f y remedial measures a s p e r c e i v e d by them.

(3) o b t a i n recommendations to upgrade environmenta l e d u c a t i o n in S r i Lankan s c h o o l s

(4) g i v e the t e a c h e r s an idea o f : (a ) e f f e c t i v e environmenta l e d u c a t i o n methods to be used by them (b) m a t e r i a l a v a i l a b l e for t h i s purpose and ( c ) prov ide some informat ion on the s t a t u s of w i ld l i f e c o n s e r v a t i o n in S r i Lanka and i t s importance .

As s u c h , i t d i f f e r e d from the Colombo workshop in having a t r a i n i n g component added to i t by way of a l e c t u r e an e f f e c t i v e methods of env ironmenta l e d u c a t i o n and a s l i d e p r e s e n t a t i o n on the wi ld l i f e of S r i Lanka. In a d d i t i o n , m a t e r i a l packs c o n t a i n i n g l e a f l e t s , b o o k l e t s and p o s t e r s which cou ld be used by the t e a c h e r s for e n v i r o n m e n t a l / c o n s e r v a t i o n educat ion were d i s t r i b u t e d to each s c h o o l r e p r e s e n t e d a t the workshop. In a d d i t i o n , p o s t e r s and books on env ironmenta l t o p i c s provided by the MfC, NARESA and the Department of Wild L i f e Conservat ion were made a v a i l a b l e for s a l e a t a nominal pr i c e .

S e s s i o n I of the workshop was c h a i r e d by Dr R.P. Jayewardene, D i r e c t o r General of NARESA. The welcome a d d r e s s was d e l i v e r e d by Mr L.C.A. de S . W i j e s i n g h e , A d d i t i o n a l D i r e c t o r General of NARESA who s t a t e d t h a t e f f e c t i v e environmental e d u c a t i o n in S r i Lankan s c h o o l s was very n e c e s s a r y to s e n s i t i z e s t u d e n t s about environmental i s s u e s , in view of f a c t tha t the younger g e n e r a t i o n would be the ones most a f f e c t e d by the d e p l e t i o n of the c o u n t r y ' s n a t u r a l r e s o u r c e s and the e f f e c t s of p o l l u t i o n ; two of the most s e r i o u s environmental problems growing d a i l y in magnitude a t p r e s e n t .

The keynote address on the o b j e c t i v e s and expec ted outcome of t h i s workshop was d e l i v e r e d by Dr S.W. Katagama, D i r e c t o r , Department of Wild L i f e C o n s e r v a t i o n . He s t r e s s e d t h a t the most important q u a l i t y needed in a teacher of e n v i r o n m e n t a l / c o n s e r v a t i o n e d u c a t i o n , was the a b i l i t y to learn w h i l e t e a c h i n g , even from t h e i r own s t u d e n t s . He a l s o s a i d t h a t a s t u d e n t should f i r s t learn from the env ironment , then learn about the environment and a t the t e r t i a r y s t a g e , learn for the env ironment . He added t h a t guided by the t e a c h e r , s t u d e n t s should be a l lowed to learn by t h e m s e l v e s , w i t h o u t the teacher i n f l i c t i n g h i s or

her own ideas and opinions on them. He next briefed the part ic ipants on the aims and object ives of this workshop and i t s expected outcome. Referring to a recommendation made at the Colombo workshop, he urged the teachers to give careful consideration as to whether they recommended teaching environmental education as a separate subjec t , or whether they preferred the mult idisc ipl inary approach adopted at present.

In her introductory speech, Dr (Miss) Thusita P e i r i s , Co-ordinator, March for Conservation briefed the part ic ipants about the or ig in and background of this workshop s e r i e s . She a lso gave a concise introduction to the structure and object ives of the workshop with respect to the day's proceedings.

The next speaker, Mr J .P . Herath, Director , Science and Maths project of the National Inst i tute of Education, stated his ideas on the object ive of including environmental education in the school curriculum. He said that the chief object ive of environmental education was to strengthen the student's a b i l i t y for decision making and to build up correct a t t i tudes ; enabling'the student to become a responsible c i t izen of the future , sensi t ive to issues connected to their physical and social environment. He stressed that giving knowledge alone to a student was insuf f ic ient as correct values and att i tudes in addition to knowledge and a b i l i t y were needed to produce an act ive and useful member of society . He added that the need for environmental education has now been recognized worldwide due to the multitude of problems re lated to environmental issues that have surfaced in recent times.

An interesting and inspiring speech on simple but e f fec t ive ways for teaching environmental/conservation education was del ivered next by Mr Jayantha Waththewidana of the Open Univers i ty . He stressed on the importance of the teacher as a ro l e model for increasing the student's awareness and sens i t iv i ty to environmental i ssues .

Session I I was devoted to discussion between resource persons and part ic ipants within three groups. Dr (Miss) Thusita P e i r i s and Miss N. Ranasinghe, Miss J .D .S . Dela and Miss U. Hett ige , Mrs Shanaaz Preena and Mr J. Wathethewidana presided over the three groups respect ive ly , to guide the discussions, which were structured on the following l ines:

1. evaluation of whether the curriculum object ives are f u l f i l l e d at present in schools, with respect of this subject

2. discussion of teaching methods currently practiced in the part ic ipants ' schools with regard to environmental/conservation education

3. ident i f icat ion of problems and constraints that teachers encounter, preventing e f f ec t ive dissemination of environmental education in schools

4 . suggestion of remedial measures to solve these problems, including ident i f icat ion of poss ible contributions by ( a ) teachers/schools ( b ) the Education Department and ( c ) other organizat ions / ins t i tut ions concerned with environmental conservation, for upgrading environmental education in schools

5 . ident i f icat ion of the type of equipment, teaching materials and training needs for teachers to improve the level of environmental education at school l eve l .

The o f f i c i a l s from the NIE joined in the group discussions.

After conclusion of the group discussions, Miss Upeksha Hettige presented a s l i d e show to the partic ipants on the importance of conserving the Wild L i f e of S r i Lanka. During- this time the group leaders pooled the recommendations made by their respective groups to prepare a summary of the discussions.

Session I I I was chaired by Dr S.W. Kotagama. The part ic ipants , discussion group leaders and panel is ts assembled together and a summary of the important points discussed by the three groups was presented by Dr (Miss) Thusita P e i r i s .

The submissions made by the teachers indicated that the majority of problems l i s ted were common to most schools, a l b e i t in d i f f e r e n t degrees . Of importance was the fact that curriculum object ives for environmental education in the formal education system were not . met with a t present in the part ic ipants ' schools, as a r e s u l t of several constra ints . I t was a lso noted that organizations involved with environmental conservation could in many ways ( i . e . by providing l i t e r a t u r e , equipment, and training programmes for teachers) a s s i s t grea t ly in upgrading environmental education in schools .

Commenting on the workshop discussions, Dr Kotagama, stressed that i t was important for teachers not to l imit themselves to the conventional teaching methods if they were to teach this subject e f f ec t ive ly to students. He stressed that a posi t ive at t i tude towards teaching environmental/conservation education was essent ia l if teachers were to achieve the goals of environmental education.

F ina l ly Mr L . C . A . de S. Wijesinghe of NARESA thanked the inst i tut ions and individuals who had col laborated with NARESA to organize this workshop; namely the representatives of March for Conservation and the National Inst i tute of Education; those who had provided educational material for d i s t r i b u t i o n , the s ta f f of NARESA who had organized and assisted with the arrangements for this workshop and the part ic ipants and resource persons, a l l of who had contributed towards making this workshop a success.

I I SUMMARY OF DISCUSSIONS BY THE THREE GROUPS

(A) Methods used currently by the part ic ipants for dissemination of environmental/conservation education in their schools:

(1) Face to f a c e t each ing through l e c t u r e s was used by a l l the t e a c h e r s p r e s e n t and was a l s o found to be the most predominantly used method by them.

(2) F i e l d t r i p s and f i e l d o b s e r v a t i o n s were organ ized once a year in a few s c h o o l s w h i l e most s c h o o l s were unable to do s o due to c e r t a i n c o n s t r a i n t s d i s c u s s e d under s e c t i o n B.

( 3 ) Newspaper a r t i c l e s ' o n e n v i r o n m e n t a l / c o n s e r v a t i o n i s s u e s were w ide ly used by t e a c h e r s , e x c e p t in remote a r e a s where newspapers were not a v a i l a b l e . In some i n s t a n c e s t eachers d i s c u s s e d r e l e v a n t news i t ems in the c lassroom and promoted an exchange of i d e a s between s t u d e n t s on t h e s e t o p i c s , w h i l e o t h e r s s p e c i f i e d newspaper a r t i c l e s for the s t u d e n t s to read a t home. In one remote s c h o o l which did n o t have a c c e s s to newspapers , the teacher c o l l e c t e d money from the s t u d e n t s to purchase for them, the c u r r e n t i s s u e of a s c i e n c e magazine, during her p e r i o d i c v i s i t s home.

(4 ) Use of a u d i o - v i s u a l equipment for environmental educat ion appeared to be l i m i t e d , due to the non a v a i l a b i l i t y of t h i s f a c i l i t y in most s c h o o l s . However, channe l ing s t u d e n t s ' a t t e n t i o n to TV. and r a d i o programmes on environmental t o p i c s was done by most t e a c h e r s in the more urban s c h o o l s

(5 ) A teacher from a remote area in the dry zone , used samples of v e g e t a t i o n from other c l i m a t i c zones which she c o l l e c t e d during her v i s i t s home, to teach the s t u d e n t s about the d i f f e r e n t v e g e t a t i o n types of S r i Lanka.

(6 ) P o s t e r s and diagrams were used to a l i m i t e d e x t e n t in a few s c h o o l s . In some i n s t a n c e s s t u d e n t s themse lves were encouraged to draw the p o s t e r s for t h e i r c l a s s .

( 7 ) Use of models to h i g h l i g h t environmenta l i s s u e s was reported in a l i m i t e d number of s c h o o l s . In one i n s t a n c e waste m a t e r i a l such a s yoghurt cups had been used to prepare these mode l s .

(B) N o t i c e boards were used in some s c h o o l s to d i s p l a y environmental news i t e m s . However, even t h i s s i m p l e method could no t be used in c e r t a i n rura l s c h o o l s due to p r e v a i l i n g c o n d i t i o n s d i s c u s s e d under s e c t i o n B.

(9) R e l a t i n g the e x p e r i e n c e s of the teacher and s t u d e n t s connected to environmental i s s u e s in c l a s s , was used in a l i m i t e d number of s c h o o l s a s a means of b u i l d i n g up environmental awareness and i n t e r e s t among the s t u d e n t s .

(10) Intra or inter-school debates on environmental issues was reportedly limited to a few schools but even in them were organized infrequently .

(11) Student part ic ipat ion in nature clubs also appeared to be rare in the part ic ipants ' schools . Only about s ix schools out of a total of twenty represented at this workshop, had nature clubs or s imilar soc ie t ies for environmental/ conservation a c t i v i t i e s .

( I S ) Assignments and projects connected to environmental/ conservation topics were reportedly used by some teachers.

Of the above mentioned methods, face to face teaching appeared to be the most widely used mode of instruction for environmental education in a l l the schools that part ic ipated . However, most schools used one or more of the other methods in addition to lectures . Inter-school col laborat ion a l so appeared to be poor in the Southern Province with respect to a c t i v i t i e s connected to environmental conservation.

(B) Problems Encountered by Teachers:

A s ign i f i cant factor was that a l l the part ic ipants agreed that the curriculum expectations with regard to environmental/conservation education, were not met with in their schools , e spec ia l ly with regard to att i tude building among the students. Teachers in the more urban schools pointed out that while their students were quite knowledgeable, about; environmental i ssues , they were not (and could not) be su f f i c i en t ly motivated to apply this knowledge to environmental/conservation matters concerning their day to day l i v e s . The teachers agreed that in more remote areas , at t i tude building was more e f f ec t ive due to c loser contact between students and teachers, apparently due to a less exam oriented outlook in these schools . However, in these areas , the lack of even the most basic f a c i l i t i e s reportedly hampered the teachers in their e f for t s to teach environmental education e f f e c t i v e l y . In the more crowded urban schools, although better f a c i l i t i e s were a v a i l a b l e with respect to material and equipment, a d i f f erent set of problems and constraints ex is ted , resul t ing from a high degree of competitiveness with regard to academic work.

From the discussions which evolved at group l eve l , the following were identif ied by the teachers present, as the chief constraints affect ing the teaching of environmental education in their schools:

(1 ) Time Constraints

( a ) due to the broad nature of the sy l labus for most subjects , the teachers stated that they were able to

Page 9: Identification of Problems and Constraints to ...thakshana.nsf.ac.lk/slstic/NA-243/NA-243.pdf · Environmental/Conservation Education At School Level ... multidisciplinary approach

caver the sy l labus only by holding extra c lasses after school hours. They said that this l e f t them l i t t l e or no time for greater emphasis on the environment/conservation topics in the s y l l a b u s , or to in i t ia te extra curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s , which they considered essent ia l for at t i tude building with respect to this subjec t .

( b ) in addit ion, the teachers dealing with environment/ conservation themes were a l so engaged in teaching many other subjects or 'topics, often in several c l a s s e s , leading to limited contact between a part icular teacher and a group of students. This a l so limited the time which could be devoted by one teacher to environmental s tud i e s .

(H) The paucity of teacher training programmes, advice and guidance to the teachers to motivate them and to improve the standard of environmental education in schools was cited as a draw back. Graduate teachers a l so f e l t that they needed special training in e f fec t ive teaching methods for young students.

( 3 ) A common problem cited by most part ic ipants was that they had to teach controversial issues which were included in the sy l labus , sometimes against their own p r i n c i p l e s . They said that some of the issues which they had to teach under one topic as being economically f e a s i b l e and v iab le appeared to be harmful in re lat ion to environmental conservation principles which they had to teach under other topics . This caused embarrassment to the teacher, and the loss of confidence in the teacher and the subject by the students. The teachers expressed the need for guidance on how to handle such s i tuat ions .

(4) The teachers f e l t that competitiveness of present day examinations had lead to a trend towards high emphasis on obtaining high examination grades . As such :

( a ) students' attendance of tuit ion c lasses prevented their part ic ipation in extra curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s such as joining and part ic ipat ing in a c t i v i t i e s of school nature clubs

( b ) the teachers f e l t that they were judged by the school pr inc ipa l s , parents and the education department on the examination grades obtained by their students rather than on the correct att i tudes that they i n s t i l l e d among the students. (Reference was made to a proposed scheme to increase the s a l a r i e s of teachers according to the examination resul t s of his/her s tudents ) .

- 7 -

( c ) ex tra -curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s were reportedly discouraged by most parents, as being harmful to the c h i l d ' s academic work. ( eg . parents objected to and complained against a teacher who requested his students to watch a TV. programme relevant to environmental s t u d i e s ) .

(d ) in some cases, school administrators a lso discouraged or even disallowed in i t ia t ion of ex tra-curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s in their schools such as formation of nature c lubs , f i e l d excursions e tc . on the grounds that they could interfere with the academic work.

These factors appeared to have contributed considerably to a decl ine in teacher motivation to make environmental education more e f fec t ive for the students, and to organize relevant ex tra -curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s . However, some partic ipants reported that excel lent co-operation between the p r i n c i p a l , teachers and students enabled a f a i r l y high standard of environmental education in their schools .

(5 ) The inadequacy of information on current environmental conservation matters and trends espec ia l ly with regard to controversial issues and disasters caused by environmental abuse was s tressed. This was common .to a l l schools, in d i f f e r e n t degrees.

( 6 ) In some remote schools even the use of newspapers as an educational aid was not poss ib l e , due to the non-ava i lab i l i ty of newspapers in those areas . Several rura l schools lacked even a topographic map of Sr i Lanka.

( 7 ) In most rura l schools, l ibrary f a c i l i t i e s were not a v a i l a b l e for the teachers or students. A small l ibrary had been set up in one such school from contributions made by the teaching s t a f f . However, several instances were a lso reported Df schools with good l ibrary f a c i l i t i e s , in which reading material sent to the school l ibrary were not free ly access ible to either the teachers or the students.

(8) The a v a i l a b i l i t y of audio-visual f a c i l i t i e s was limited to a few urban schools . Therefore, educational programmes te lecast on T V . , (espec ia l ly those te lecast during school hours) , did not reach the students of most rura l schools . However, even in some urban schools where these f a c i l i t i e s were a v a i l a b l e , time and other constraints had lead to i t s under u t i l i z a t i o n as a tool for environmental education.

(9 ) I t was f e l t that insuf f ic ient time al located for and inadequate weightage given to environmental/conservation topics in the sy l labus were major constra ints . This had lead the students to feel that these topics were unimportant from an examination point of view, and caused them to be given low pr ior i ty making i t very d i f f i c u l t for the teachers to encourage the students to give more emphasis to this subjec t .

(10) Introducing a pract ica l approach to environmental education through f i e l d observation was reportedly hampered due to several factors stated below:

( a ) students' low economic status in rural schools did not permit them to part ic ipate in long distance excursions. As such, these students could not be given an idea of other areas in the country which were geographically d i f f erent

(b) soc ia l res tra ints a lso made i t d i f f i c u l t for teachers to organize f i e l d tr ips and to ensure student part ic ipat ion , espec ia l ly in mixed schools

( c ) r i g i d ideas of school administrators and school regulat ions also great ly hampered- the organization of f i e l d excursions etc . espec ia l ly in mixed schools

(11) Inadequate finances, necessary equipment, material and space were cited as problems in most schools resul t ing in low motivation to in i t ia te environmental projects (eg . Ci] school garden competitions and tree planting campaigns were not poss ible due to lack of garden space in most schools C i i ] some remote schools reportedly did not even have adequate wal l space to set up a c lass notice b o a r d ) .

(12) The aggressiveness and destructive nature of present day students, espec ia l ly in boys' schools or mixed schools made organizing of extra-curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s and att i tude building d i f f i c u l t for the teachers.

(13) A low level or absence of col laborat ion between schools, even within the cluster school system was reported with respect to environmental/conservation education.

(14) Social factors and practices were a lso found to contribute to the host of problems affect ing the teaching of environmental/conservation education and att i tude building among students in remote schools, (eg . in areas where chena cult ivat ion was the chief means of l ive l ihood, parents were reported to be emphatically against their children being involved with f i e ld work such as tree planting e t c . , during school hours as they spent most of their time out of school t i l l i n g the s o i l and looking after the crops. As such, the parents f e l t that school hours should be devoted to academic work only.

I I I . RECOMMENDATIONS

(A) Methods ident i f ied as e f f ec t i ve means by which environmental education could be disseminated in schools; in addition to those l i s ted under ( I I - A ) :

(1) to organize home garden, or tree planting contests (where space permits)

(2) to organize s tree t p lays , school drama and a r t competitions and debates on environmental themes and issues, at intra or inter-school l eve l .

( 3 ) to e n l i s t the help of interested past pupils of the school or youth soc ie t ies i n . v i l l a g e areas to organize nature clubs and extra curr icu lar a c t i v i t i e s connected to environmental i ssues .

(4 ) to prepare compost heaps in schools and to give greater emphasis to a g r i c u l t u r a l studies where-space permits.

( 5 ) to set up nurseries for economically useful species , ( i . e . f r u i t trees or medicinal plants) and to exchange plants between schools in the area

( 6 ) to organize an environment day as a regular feature in schools , at least once in two months.

( 7 ) for those teaching environmental topics / sub-units under the sc ience/socia l science s y l l a b i in a school, to c o l l e c t i v e l y identify nature t r a i l s in wooded areas in the v ic in i ty of their school, for students to carry out nature studies and assignments s .

(8) If f inancial constraints prevented the students from part ic ipat ing in long distance excursions, to organize frequent short distance f i e l d v i s i t s and to encourage students to re la te the experiences gained during these excursions in c l a s s . I t was f e l t that whenever poss ible these v i s i t s should be designed to show the ef fects of pol lut ion or environmental degradation to the students.

The following s i t e s were suggested for f i e l d v i s i t s in the Southern Province :

( a ) Koggala lagoon ( b ) Uda Walawe National Park ( c ) Madu Duwa at Balapi t iya (d) Dodanduwa ( e ) Mangroves a t Matara ( f ) Kottawa wet zone reserve ( g ) Hikkaduwa coral reefs (h) Kurulu Duwa, Koggala ( i ) Kalametiya

(9) to encourage the students to maintain a nature d i a r y .

(10) to encourage students to take up bee keeping in their homes. This would enable them to generate an income while inculcating a love of nature within the student.

(B) Training Needs :

(1) Training programmes, guidance and advice were considered v i t a l for those teaching environmental education to increase their teaching a b i l i t i e s and motivation.

(2 ) The nature of the training programmes required were identif ied as fol lows :

( a ) The programmes should be frequent and held at least once in three months. They should consist of one day workshops or seminars, preferably on a non-working day.

( b ) The group s ize at these workshops/seminars should not exceed 50 persons.

(c ) The training centres should not be too far away from the trainees' schools.

(d) Training was needed on e f fec t ive teaching of young children as well as on eas i ly used methods for e f fect ive teaching of environmental education.

(e ) One discussion group recommended that a teacher with a high degree of motivation with respect to environmental education be selected from each educational d iv i s ion , released from other school work and given a comprehensive training in environmental education. This teacher should be then based at a d iv i s iona l f i e l d centre and made to conduct frequent training programmes for other teachers within his education d i v i s i o n . In addit ion, he could also v i s i t schools when requested and be consulted by the other teachers within the d i v i s i o n .

I t was stressed that spec ia l ly motivated teachers should be selected for this purpose, in preference to master teachers who may not be motivated with respect to environmental conservation.

( f ) I t was a lso stressed that major training programmes should preferably be carried out by non-governmental organizations, as opposed to master teachers as the former would be more motivated than those receiving payment for this purpose.

to a teacher in charge of the school's environmental programme. This would enable the teachers dealing with this subject to be kept informed of the material sent to the l i b r a r y .

or

d i s tr ibut ion of educational material during training programmes to the teachers d i r e c t l y , who could hand over the material to their respective school l i b r a r i e s .

(2) Other material and equipment required by the teachers and suggested ways for ensuring that they are made a v a i l a b l e to schools :

( a ) provision of audio-visual f a c i l i t i e s for schools; i . e . cassette recorders , video equipment and s l i d e projectors for environmental s tudies , was advocated by two groups while one group f e l t that these f a c i l i t i e s were of limited value for rura l schools . However, even this group f e l t that an opportunity for students to watch an occasional video film or film show on conservation or animal behaviour could great ly enhance their e f f o r t s for att i tude building of rural students. In remote areas where chena cul t ivat ion or sugar cane cult ivat ion was the chief mode of l ive l ihood, k i l l i n g or maiming elephants by v i l l a g e r s was common and an accepted fact by the community. A film on elephant behaviour could great ly help to change their att i tudes towards this pract i ce .

( b ) samples of mineral resources and s o i l types

( c ) samples of coral types

(d) the best method for providing the above material and equipment to schools was suggested as being through f i e l d centres set up in each education divis ion as this would provide equal opportunities for the equipment to be u t i l i z e d by a l l the schools in that d i v i s i o n . I t was stated that supplying material on a 'cluster school bas i s ' or sett ing up of f i e l d centres at provincial level were not d e s i r a b l e for the fol lowing reasons:

( i ) the former would not r e s u l t in equal opportunities for a l l the schools within the c luster system, and

( i i ) the lat ter system would make the f i e l d centre too far off from most schools ( e spec ia l l y in the sparsely populated larger provinces)for them to make use of the f a c i l i t i e s a v a i l a b l e in these centres .

(C) Teaching Aids & Material Required :

The teachers f e l t that they would be great ly assisted if education mater ia l , books, l ea f l e t s e tc . on environmental/ conservation topics could be made available more freely to them and to the students.

(1) The nature of books, per iodica ls and maps e tc . needed and the mode of supplying these items to schools were identif ied as fo l lows:

( a ) Booklets, or other forms of l i t e ra ture for students should be in simple language, with p i c tor ia l representation wherever poss ib le .

( b ) P r i o r i t y topics on which information was needed were ident i f ied as fo l lows:

( i ) f l ora indigenous to the country and to d i f f erent geographic regions

( i i ) threatened and endemic species of fauna and f l ora

( i i i ) fauna and f l ora which are of economic use (medicinal plants e t c . )

( i v ) mineral resources of the country ( v ) b io log ica l cycles and their importance ( v i ) information on coast conservation ( v i i ) a newsletter containing current environmental/

conservation issues and events both at national level and abroad, e spec ia l ly on disasters due to adverse impacts of environmental abuse such as pollution and fores t destruct ion, to be circulated to schools .

( v i i i ) information on fore s t s , coral reefs and mangroves

( i x ) facts about the environmental impact of important development and i r r i g a t i o n projects both here and abroad.

( c ) topographic and other maps depicting the d i f f erent bio-cl imatic regions and the vegetation of these areas .

(d ) posters depicting medicinal p lants , endemic fauna and fauna and f lora of high ecological or economic value

( e ) The following methods were recommended for supplying these items in order to ensure that they reached the school l i b r a r i e s and the teachers:

( i ) sending the material to the school l ibrary through the principal with a copy of the covering let ter (containing a l i s t of books or per iodica ls on environmental matters sent to the school l i b r a r y )

(D) Syl labus requirements with respect to environmental education.

(1) Time and weightage factors :

( a ) approximately 67'/. of the part ic ipants f e l t that environmental/conservation studies should be taught as a separate subject for greater e f fec t and weightage, and not as a sub-sect ion/topic within several subjects as at present. They a lso recommended that a t least one time period a week should be set apart for environmental s tudies .

( b ) approximately 33% f e l t that the mult id isc ip l inary approach to environmental education was sa t i s fac tory . However, they too f e l t that greater weightage was needed in the sy l labus for this .subject . As such, they f e l t that environmental/ conservation studies should be made sub-units in the soc ia l studies and science s y l l a b i ( s imi lar to history within soc ia l s t u d i e s ) . They a l so thought that greater emphasis should be given to conservation issues whenever poss ible within the other subjects i . e . language, r e l i g i o n , h is tory , geography, a r t e tc .

These teachers recommended that more time should be given to topics dealing with conservation in the soc ia l science s y l l a b u s . They suggested that this could be done by a l locat ing less time to i rr iga t ion and developmental schemes than at present.

( c ) a l l the teachers agreed that environmental conservation studies should be made compulsory either as a subject or as a question for the sc ience /soc ia l science examination papers at the G.C.E . ' 0 ' l eve l examination. They also f e l t that when ever poss ib l e , environmental topics should be given p r i o r i t y when designing examination papers for language, r e l i g ion & a r t . (eg . one topic for essays in the language paper could be regu lar ly based on environmental i s s u e s ) . The partic ipants thought that this would encourage students to read more about the environment, which might lead to a greater degree of interest in this subjec t .

(2) Nature of environmental education:

( a ) I t was suggested that the conservation aspect in environmental education should be emphasized more than a t present in the primary grades , and that the aesthetic value of nature should be presented to the student at this level

- 14 -

Page 17: Identification of Problems and Constraints to ...thakshana.nsf.ac.lk/slstic/NA-243/NA-243.pdf · Environmental/Conservation Education At School Level ... multidisciplinary approach

( b ) I t was recommended that conservation education a t a later stage (year 6 onwards) should concentrate on the economic and ecological importance of environmental/ wild l i f e conservation, as these aspects tended to appeal more to students of this age group.

(E) Poss ib le assistance from non-governmental or governmental organizations as suggested by the part ic ipants :

1) to encourage students to set up nurseries for f r u i t and timber species and making provision for these plants to be bought by the Forest Department or Timber Corporation.

E) to a s s i s t teachers in-encouraging bee keeping among students and making provision for purchase of honey

3 ) to a s s i s t students to co l l ec t waste material (paper, bott les e t c . ) for recyc l ing , by arranging for i t s purchase by co l lect ing agencies.

4) to set up environmental conservation groups in v i l l a g e s for rura l youth in close col laborat ion with f i e ld o f f i cers from the Wild L i f e Department stationed in these areas . These youth groups could a lso a s s i s t in organizing environmental programmes in the v i l l a g e schools in their areas . This would a lso increase the awareness of the importance of environmental education within the v i l l a g e community as a whole, leading to a better understanding - of the teachers e f f o r t s for environmental education among parents, in addition to making the younger generation more susceptible to environmental education within the formal education system.

IV CONCLUSIONS

This workshop helped to provide an insight into the current status of environmental education in schools within the Southern Province and in s imi lar a r e a s . However, comparison with the outcome of the previously held Colombo workshop denoted a marked s imi lar i ty of problems and constraints to the e f f ec t ive dissemination of environmental education in the two reg ions . As at the one held in Colombo, the f indings at this workshop denote that environmental education a t school level f a l l s far below the goals and expectations which promoted i t s inclusion into the school curriculum.

In addit ion to the ident i f icat ion of def ic iencies in the schools' environmental programme and formulation of recommendations for i t s improvement by the part ic ipat ing teachers themselves, the workshop provided an opportunity for a free exchange of ideas and views between the teachers of the s u b j e c t , o f f i c i a l s of the Education Ministry and other governmental and non-governmental organizations concerned with the promotion of environmental education in the country. I t a lso enabled each group to gauge the nature and extent of the contribution that they and the other groups could make with regard to environmental education at school l e v e l .

Based on the outcome of the f i r s t workshop held in Colombo, this workshop was structured by NARESA to obtain more spec i f ic recommendations from the partic ipants with respect to education mater ia l , training and other assistance required by teachers and students to u p l i f t the level of environmental conservation education in S r i Lankan schools . As such, i t was poss ible to obtain from this workshop detai led information on how training programmes should be organized for maximum benef i t of the teachers and students, the nature and type of educational material needed and the most e f fec t ive methods of making them a v a i l a b l e to schools .

In conclusion, the urgent need for a concerted e f f o r t to increase both teacher and student motivation with respect to environmental education in the Southern Province and other s imilar areas in this country, by concerned governmental and non-governmental inst i tut ions and organizat ions was one of the most important factors which emerged from this workshop.

WELCOME ADDRESS

Mr L.C.A. de S. Wijesinghe

(Additional Director General, Natural Resources, Energy & • Science Authority)

Let me welcome all of you to this Workshop on Environmental Education in schools.

We have with us here representatives from several institutions: NARESA, Dept of Wild Life, Open University, Ministry of Education, Forest Department, and March for Conservation. With all that, I would say that the most important persons present here today are .you, the teachers.

Now why is there so much concern for preserving the environment today. In early times, man was a part of nature, and whatever our ancestors did, whether it was fishing, or clearing a patch of forest for cultivation, or cutting a few trees for building their houses, they were all a part of the natural process, the web of life. With the growth in the human population, man began to use up natural resources much faster than nature could renew them. In addition, with the growth of technology, man started pouring out into the environment substances which were destroying and polluting nature. So today man cannot any longer be considered as part of nature. Man's activities tend to destroy natural processes and natural resources.

If we examine the way in which we have used our natural resources over the past few decades .we will, in many cases, see a disturbing trend. If we plot resource use against time, we will see a rapid rise in the graph followed by a flattening. Let us take land given out for irrigation agriculture. There has been rapid colonisation from the 1950's, and it is now slowing down as the irrigable land is getting exhausted. In the productivity of paddy lands, there has been a rapid increase in the average yield per acre and it is now remaining more or less static. In the tapping of ground water, we are reaching the limit in many areas. In the clearing of forests to provide land, or in their exploitat­ion to provide timber, we are reaching a stage where the available resources are becoming very limited. In hydropower resources, most of our large and medium scale power resources would have been tapped by next year and we will have to look for alternatives. In fisheries, in lagoons and estuaries, we have already reached the stage where there is overfishing.

So, there are serious problems regarding the sustainable use of resources. That is as far as natural resources go. As regards the environment is general, we have heard of global problems such as the increasing green house effect, the thinning out of the protective ozone shield, the dumping of toxic wastes and so on.

Here in Sri Lanka one of the most serious environmental problems is the high level of soil erosion. The Mahaweli upper catchment has only 8% of its land area under forest. And there are large areas of badly managed land, including tea estates, where erosion of soil is very severe. This threatens to cut short the life span of hydropower and irrigation reservoirs. Other types of pollution are more local and are a serious problem to the people living in the vicinity of the industries concerned.

So, the problems of depletion of natural resources and pollution of the environment are growing in magnitude daily. The people who will be most affected are not those who are present here but it will be the school children of today. If we want to preserve the environment and the natural resources of the country, it is that group that has to be sensitized. That is why environmental education is so important today.

Environmental subjects cannot be learnt on taught entirely out of books. No doubt books and guides are necessary, but eventually it has to be learnt from field observations and field experience. These observations have to be supported by guides, newspaper articles, magazines, posters, and so on.

These workshops that we are holding - we have earlier held one in Colombo for the Colombo and neighbouring areas - are meant to bring teachers together, teachers who are in charge of environmental education. They would then have the opportunity of discussing their problems. They would also learn from each others experiences. They could point out the constraints they are facing in imparting environmental education. This is where agencies like NARESA, the Depart­ment of Wild Life, the CEA, and non-government organizations like March for Conservation could come to your assistance.
