Edukacinė ir rekreacinė veikla Žagarės regioniniame parke: teorinės ir praktinės galimybės /

The problem of environmental protection is important not only countrywide but worldwide too. Protected territories are being set in order to preserve unique objects of nature and culture. But public awareness is needed too, in order to save those. So generic competence programs are being integrated into primary and compulsory education framework programs in order to help form versatile personalities. Protected areas are there to pursue educational programs, educate society and mostly important to cooperate with formal and informal educational institutions. Research object: Educational and recreational activities in Žagarė Regional Park. Goal of research – Detecting theoretical and practical opportunities of educational and recreational activities in Žagarė Regional Park. Methods of research: document analysis, analysis of literature, interviews, questionnaire survey, qualitative and quantitative analysis of survey results, descriptive statistics. Research undertake and organisation: Survey was done in three stages. First stage: interviewing a member of Žagarė Regional Park Direction. Second stage: questionnaire survey on 119 pupils of Žagarė Gymnasium. Third stage: a teacher of Žagarė Gymnasium was interviewed. Having completed all the research stages I learned that educational and recreational resources of Žagarė Regional Park are well suitable for leisure and learning. Theoretical opportunities for educational and recreational activities being prosperous, teachers still use the resources of the Park to educate pupils too little. Pupils also have little interest in activities of Žagarė Regional Park and programs the Park offers. The Park Direction targets its activities on visitors more than on local citizens and this is the reason pupils are not actively participating in events run by the Direction.
