HUMAN LIFE STAGES - WHAT AND HOW MUCH DO STUDENTS IN THE TRANSITION FROM THE FIRST TO THE SECOND TRIAD IN PRIMARY SCHOOL KNOW ABOUT THEM

POVZETEK V pričujočem diplomskem delu z naslovom »Obdobja človekovega življenja – kaj in koliko vedo o njih učenci na prehodu iz prvega v drugo triletje osnovne šole« se dopolnjujeta in prepletata dve zaokroženi celoti – teoretična in empirična. V teoretičnem delu so podrobno opisana obdobja človekovega življenja od rojstva do smrti. Hkrati smo v sklopu teoretičnega dela naredili tudi analizo učnih načrtov in učbenikov za pouk spoznavanja okolja v prvem, drugem in tretjem razredu ter družbe in naravoslovja in tehnike v četrtem in petem razredu osnovne šole s stališča obdobij človekovega življenja. V empiričnem delu pa predstavljamo rezultate empirične raziskave o poznavanju obdobij človekovega življenja med osnovnošolci tretjega, četrtega in petega razreda podeželske (OŠ Jožeta Hudalesa Jurovski Dol) in mestne (OŠ Janka Padežnika Maribor) osnovne šole. Ugotavljamo, da je znanje otrok o raziskovalnem problemu po pričakovanju zelo dobro.The diploma thesis entitled \u27Human life stages – what and how much do students in the transition from the first to the second triad in primary school know about them\u27 consists of two complementary and intertwined wholesthe theoretical and the empirical.
