길동자연생태공원 생태학교 교재에 나오는 동식물의 종류와 종수에 대한 연구

Abstract

This study was carried out to develop a relationship between eco-schools and public schools. For this purpose, the numbers of the animal and plant species in the textbooks of the eco-school in Kildong Nature Eco-park were analyzed and compared with those of public schools. The animal and plant species in the eco-school textbooks were the total of 297 and 419 species, respectively. Athropods and Dicotyledons were most abundant among animals and plants, respectively. Only vascular plants and fungi among plants were introduced and others were never mentioned. One characteristic of the textbook of the eco-school was that animals and plants which can be observable easily in the eco-park were selected in the textbook.This study suggests the possibility of connection between eco-schools and public schools, e.g., outdoor activities of eco-schools and indoor activities of public schools. This connection might be successful when observable species and timing of plants and animals are considered. To develop relationships between public school and eco-school programs for various disciplines such as evolution, adaptation, ecosystem and environmental problems, teachers of both parts should get together and develop special textbooks and programs based on analysis of public school and eco-school textbooks and survey of plants and animals in eco-parks.
