One of
directions to raise the Russian educational process efficiency at various
levels is introduction in education practice
on geography, ecology and nature management the cartographical and
innovative space methods of research for studying natural resources and
ecological condition in various regions of
To be more and more obvious is a necessity of use methods of
space and cartographic knowledge for formation at pupils the outlook about
environment at reception of geographical, ecological and naturalists' knowledge,
about spatial distribution on terrestrial surface of natural and anthropogenous
objects and phenomena.
Without
knowledge of interconnection bases, interacting of the nature and a society,
regularity of cartographical representation of natural and ecological features
on the basis of remote sensing use the pupils will not be able fully to study
sciences about the Earth, a condition of residing territory, to define
necessary probable ways of an exit from possible adverse ecological situations.
Value of space natural study and use of methods and means of space surveying at studying geography of regions gains in strength due to regional components in their contents. On space pictures it is possible to reveal specificity of areas and regions, versatile studying of pupils residing territory geography. In addition so-called «regionalization» of space education means free orientation of pupils on territories of their residing, knowledge of natural, ecological conditions, cultural sights of the area.
Working out of teaching and methodical
materials «Space Natural Study and Geography» is one of the first Russian
development in the field of introduction new aspects of cartographical aids on
the basis of aero - and space pictures, the maps and charts generated in the Roskartographya
funds, unique data of the Earth remote sensing, gained by cosmonauts and
astronauts during outer-space flights, and also results of long-term researches
of specialists from FGUP "State center “the Nature” on application of the
space information for the purposes of nature management and studying of the
Earth natural resources.
One of the
teaching aspects and methodical materials is the Working writing-book created
as the additional teaching and methodical aid to textbooks on subjects
"Natural study" and "Geography" for general education
school pupils of 6-9 grades and intended for more profound studying by pupils
the physical and geographical and natural processes and the phenomena,
occurring on the Earth, ecology of various regions, and also for development of
knowledge in the field of the environment researches on materials of the Earth remote
sensing.
As the basis
of the teaching and methodical materials content, created in traditional, analogue form (on
paper carrier) and the digital form (on compact discs), it will be laid the
maps and charts, space images, aero photos, results of their thematic
processing and decoding, and also methodical tooling on their form improving in
the informational and technological plane the process of school education, and
allowing pupils independently in an interactive regime on a personal computer
to carry out various tasks of the exploratory character with use of the
aero-space information.
Perfection
of the Russian educational process system for general and additional education
demands development of, in principle new solutions, upgrading education
quality, on the basis of introduction the results of scientific and practical
researches in the field of aero- and space means and methods use for complex
studying and mapping of natural resources and ecological circumstances of
regions in the Russian Federation.
Development of fundamentally new solutions and provisions upgrading education quality, on the basis of wide use of remote sensing data is a problem of the extremely necessity and actuality.
