Abstract

Kvaliteta prostornog i materijalnog okruženja usko je povezana s kvalitetom odgojnoobrazovnog procesa (Nacionalni kurikulum za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje, 2014). Kako bi pridonijeli cjelokupnom razvoju djece, odgojitelji trebaju znati način kako djeca uče i kako teče razvoj djece od najranije dobi. Uloga odgojitelja je prepoznati interese djece, a prostorno i materijalno okruženje mijenjati i nadopunjavati ovisno o dobi, interesima i stupnju razvoja djece s kojom rade. Na uzorku od 71 ispitanika provelo se kvantitativno istraživanje s ciljem dobivanja uvida u stavove odgojitelja o prostornom i materijalnom okruženju u dječjem vrtiću, odnosno sobi dnevnog boravka u kojoj rade. Anketa je ispitanicima ponuđena u obliku online obrasca. Iz dobivenih rezultata zaključuje se da odgojitelji, bez obzira na godine radnog staža, prostorno i materijalno okruženje smatraju važnim i mijenjaju ga ovisno o interesima djece, odnosno više puta godišnje. Istraživanjem je uočeno kako edukacije na temu prostornomaterijalnog okruženja već dulje vremena nisu dostupne, posljednja edukacija vezana uz prostorno okruženje prema AZOO održana je u veljači 2019. godine pod temom „Organizacija prostora i vremena kao bitnih čimbenika zdravoga razvoja djece u dječjem vrtiću“. Obzirom na iskazani interes ispitanika u ovom istraživanju, u praksi je vidljiva potreba za seminarima i radionicama na temu prostornog i materijalnog okruženja.

Abstract (english)

The quality of spatial and material environment is closely connected with the quality of educational process (National curriculum for early and preschool education, 2014). To contribute to the overall development of children, preschool teachers should be familiar with the learning and development processes of children since early childhood. The role of preschool teachers is to recognise the interests of children and to adapt and modify the spatial and material environment depending on the age, interests and development stage of children they work with. A quantitative study was performed on a sample of 71 subjects in order to gain insight into the standpoints of preschool teachers regarding the spatial and material environment in kindergartens, i.e. kindergarten classrooms. The questionnaire was submitted to the study subjects in the form of an online template. The obtained results indicated that the preschool teachers, regardless of the duration of their professional experience, were of the opinion that the spatial and material environment was of great significance and that it should be adapted to the interests of children on several occasions annually. The results of the study showed that the training programmes on the topic of spatial/material environment had not been available for some time. According to the information obtained from the Education and Teacher Training Agency (AZOO), the last such training programme called “Organisation of Space and Time as Significant Factors in Healthy Development of Children in Kindergartens” took place in February 2019. Considering the expressed interest of the study subjects, the conclusion was that there existed a high need for seminars and workshops on the topic of spatial/material environment in the professional context.
