Pierina Borangas Überlegungen zum Natur-Kind-Verhältnis

Abstract

Pierina Boranga’s Considerations on the Nature-Child-Relationship Pierina Boranga has spent her entire working life teaching natural science subjects in primary schools. She has, however, not been awarded the level of recognition, she actually should have been given and, instead, has found her place in the shadow of others. Taking a look at her diary entries reveals the level of intensive, independent intellectual efforts she has made during her early teaching period, in order to provide children with a sustainable understanding of how to deal with subjects in the field of natural science.
