Green is Good: Nature Effect in The Educational Project Intended for Dysfunctional Family System Children
Öz
The subject of the text is on how to implement the favourable attitude towards plants and animals in children being brought up in the disfunctional families. The psychological researches show the restorative nature effect. Contacting with nature reduces the stress level, develops the naturalist intelligence (having been discriminated in Multiple Intelligences Theory by Howard Gardner) and creative abilities. Being in touch with nature seems to bring a lot benefits for children whose growth is endangered by the difficult living conditions and surroundings. The modern world being on the edge of ecological disaster challenges nearly all professionals to think over the issues of co-existing humans with plants and animals. This important task is put forward by educators and psychologists. The former ones try to broaden the ecological consciousness in the society by realising educational programs and prompts. Psychologists still explore relations among entities in the space of nature in the psychological terms. The article grasps the two approaches – ecological psychology and an educational offer of the literary-educational project for children. The chosen examples of nature influencing psychological processes are described in the paper.
