Abstract

Oprašivanje je proces koji povezuje prirodni ekosustav s onim kojeg kontrolira čovjek, te
uvelike ovisi o njihovom međudjelovanju. Ubrzanom urbanizacijom čovjek uvelike uništava
prirodna staništa i onemogućava prirodni razvoj kukaca oprašivača. Među kukcima
oprašivačima postoje brojne razlike, od rasprostranjenosti, građe, brojnosti i dr., no svaki od
njih ima svoju ulogu u održavanju bioraznolikosti u prirodi. Njihov značaj, osim u
poljoprivrednoj proizvodnji, vidljiv je i u očuvanju zdravlja okoliša. Ljudi su već stoljećima
svjesni važnosti kukaca oprašivača te se oni spominju kroz brojne zapise tijekom povijesti.
Istraživanja su pokazala kako u posljednjih nekoliko godina dolazi do pada broja i raznolikosti
oprašivača, te se zbog toga kod ljudi javlja potreba za njihovom zaštitom. Kako bi spoznali
važnost kukaca oprašivača, o njihovoj važnosti mora se govoriti tijekom obrazovanja mladih
ljudi, posebice školaraca. Stoga je cilj rada bio, pomoću ankete provjeriti koliko važnosti se
pridaje poznavanju kukaca oprašivača tijekom osnovnoškolskog obrazovanja i koliko su
učenici završnih razreda diljem Republike Hrvatske upoznati s njima, njihovom građom,
navikama i prirodnim staništima.

Abstract (english)

Pollination is a process that connects the natural ecosystem with the one controlled by
humans, and largely depends on their interaction. Accelerated urbanization greatly destroys
natural habitats and prevents the natural development of pollinating insects. There are numerous
differences among pollinators, from distribution, body structure, abundance, etc., but each of
them has its role in maintaining biodiversity in nature. Their importance, in addition to
agricultural production, is visible in increasing the quality of water, air and soil. People have
been aware of the importance of pollinators for centuries and they are mentioned through
numerous reord throughout history. Research has shown that in the last few years there has been
a decline in the number and diversity of pollinators, which is why people need to protect them.
In order to realize the importance of pollinators, their importance must be discussed during the
education of young people, especially schoolchildren. Therefore, the aim of this study was to
check how much importance is attached to the knowledge of pollinating insects during primary
education and how much final grade students throught the Republic of Croatia are familiar with
them, their structure, habits and natural habitats.
