PSYCHODIDACTICS OF ECOPSYCHOLOGICAL
EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT DESIGN

The article deals with the issue of designing a harmonious ecopsychological educational space in terms of secondary schools and higher educational institutions. The paper aims to reveal psychodidactic aspects of designing an ecopsychological educational environment at secondary schools and higher educational institutions, and to determine the main ways of its formation in the process of studying natural sciences. The following research methods were used in the study: questionnaire “Psychodidactic Aspects of Ecopsychological Educational Environment Design” by S. Yalanska, “Alternative” by V. Yasvin, S. Deriabo, “The Nervous System Power” inventory by A. Besedin, I. Lipatov, A. Timchenko, V. Shapar. As a result of the research, there is a necessity of introducing the “Didactic Service” system and the “Psychological Didactic Service” system (a program of university students’ creative competence development) into the educational process of secondary schools and higher educational institutions. Within the framework of these programs, natural sciences are considered as ideological, which should ensure the formation of students’ scientific worldview, ecology-based thinking, etc.
