This article has as focus an environmental education analysis of ten selected poems
from the book Skakering (Opperman and Coetzee 1991) to associate the problem of
environmental education with the teaching of a humanities subject like Afrikaans, and
specifically in the light of the poem as text. It has as its aim the teaching of a genre, to
relate in this regard the single text (the poem text) to the environment and
environmentally associated problems. In this respect an approach which is aimed at
selected texts in Skakering (Opperman and Coetzee 1991) shall possibly accentuate
both teachers and pupils' relationship with nature. This article will concentrate on the
following: a definition of environmental education as phenomenon which links up the
concept ecology, general overview of the important and relevant sources, a theoretical
explanation of the concept environmental education, a brief discussion of existing
studies that pays attention to the environment and environmental education in the
literature, the analysis of the contents of poems that represent certain environmental
problems, and an awareness of the pedagogical implications for the teacher. OPSOMMING
Hierdie artikel het as fokus 'n ' omgewingsopvoedingsanalise van tien geselekteerde
gedigte uit die bundel Skakering (Oppenman en Coetzee 1991 ) om die probleem van
omgewingsopvoeding in verband te bring met die onderrig van 'n geesteswetenskaplike
vak 5005 Afrikaans. en spesifiek aan die hand van die gedigteks. Oit het as doel die
onderrig van 'n genre, om in die verband die enkelteks (die gedigteks) in verband te
bring met die omgewing en omgewingsverwante probleme. In hierdie opsig sal 'n
benadering wat op geselekteerde tekste in Skakering (Opperman en Coetzee 1991 )
gerig is, beide ondervvysers en leerlinge se verhouding met die natuur aksentueer. In
hierdie artikel word op die volgende gekonsentreer: die omskrywing van
omgewingsopvoeding as verskynsel wat aansluit by die konsep ekologie, In oorsig van
die belangrike en retevante bronne, 'n toeretiese uiteensetting van die konsep
omgewingsopvoedingsbenadering, 'n kortlikse bespreking van bestaande studies wat
aandag gee aan die omgewing en omgewingsopvoeding in die letterkunde, 'n analise
van die inhoud van gedigte wat bepaalde omgewingsopvoedingsprobleme representeer,
en 'n bewustheid van die pedagogiese implikasies vir die onderwyser. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of Natal, Durban, 2001.
