RESOURCE PROVISION AND HUMAN RESOURCE POTENTIAL FOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY RUSSIA: SOCIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS

Abstract

This article attempts to evaluate the resource provision and personnel potential of environmental education implemented in the organizations of additional education in modern Russia. The authors present the results of a sociological study, carried out in the form of an expert survey of teachers and administrators in twenty educational institutions, implementing environmental education programs. The authors conclude that the main barriers that prevents effective environmental education is the lack of a systematic approach to the organization of educational processes and the uneven distribution of resources and material and technical support.
