TRAFFIC KNOWLEDGE AND HANDLING OF PUPILS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL ČRENŠOVCI

Diplomsko delo »Prometno znanje in ravnanje učencev v OŠ Črenšovci« je sestavljeno iz dveh zaokroženih celot – teoretičnega in empiričnega dela. V teoretičnem delu smo predstavljali literaturo v zvezi z raziskovalnim problemom. Podrobneje smo razložili pojem promet, prometne nesreče, razvojne značilnosti otrok pri vključevanju v promet ter pomen prometne varnosti. Predstavili smo tudi program prometne vzgoje v devetletni osnovni šoli, Svet za preventivo in vzgojo v cestnem prometu v Republiki Sloveniji ter Prometno-varnostni načrt šole. V empiričnem delu pa je predstavljena analiza raziskave med učenci OŠ Črenšovci, kjer smo preverjali znanje ter stališča učencev o prometu, natančneje od 3. do 9. razreda. Za testiranje postavljenih hipotez smo uporabili test znanja in lestvico stališč. Zanimalo nas je tudi, kako na prometno znanje in ravnanje učencev vplivata spol in razred šolanja. Ugotovili smo, da imajo učenci dokaj dobro znanje o prometu, prav tako stališča. Postavljene hipoteze glede zveze med znanjem in stališči so bile večinoma zavrnjene.The thesis »Traffic knowledge and handling of pupils in Primary School Črenšovci» consists of two round up wholes –theoretical and empirical part. In theoretical part we presented the literature connected to the research problem. I explained in details the concept of traffic, traffic accident, developmental features of children integrating into the traffic and the meaning of traffic safety. We also presented the programme of traffic education in 9-year primary school, the world of prevention and education in road traffic in the Republic of Slovenia and the traffic safety plan of the school. In empirical part I presented the analysis of the research among pupils of Primary School Črenšovci, where we tested the knowledge and standpoints of pupils in traffic. Pupils that were involved in the research were from classes 3 to 9. For testing of our hypothesis we used the knowledge test and the standpoint scale. We were also interested in how the traffic knowledge and pupil’s behaviour is influenced by sex and age. We found out that pupils are at a quite high level with their traffic knowledge and their point of view. The set hypotheses about the connection of knowledge and point of view were mostly rejected
