Resilience In The Semantic Space Of Education For Sustainable Development

Abstract

The success of education for sustainable development largely depends on the linguistic means used. Education for sustainable development sets the tasks for every person to master the knowledge and skills that contribute to the sustainable development of society. To make his language understandable for everyone, he cannot be limited only by scientific concepts. To change the assessments of the world, values, human behavior, education for sustainable development has to be connected with the human feelings, culture, traditions, everyday practice, include symbols, myths, metaphors that reflect the environment-saving type of relations between society and nature. The authors substantiate the necessity of developing linguistic means of education for sustainable development. The purpose of the research is to study the influence of sustainable development metaphors on the understanding of teachers of the essence of the new concept of resilience. In the second of these groups, teachers, unlike the first, consider the introduction to teaching of the new term "resilience" to be necessary, understand their responsibility for its formation in children, consider that not only material, but also spiritual factors are important for this (knowledge, values , worldview) and are confident that they can do it. The conclusion is made about the importance of metaphorical modeling of the language of instruction of teachers in the formation of the semantic space of education for sustainable development.
