Principles of environmental management as a basis for the formation of a culture of rational use of resources

Introduction. The analysis of the causes of environmental offenses on the part of military personnel in terms of violating the requirements of environmental legislation allows us to assert that the ability to perform organizational, managerial, production and technical measures for the rational use of resources should be formed during training at a military university. The relevance of this work is associated with the insufficient implementation of the didactic principle of the connection between the theoretical foundations of military ecology taught at the university and practical situations of military service that require the implementation of measures to ensure environmental safety.

Problem statement. In this regard, there is a need to improve the methods of teaching applied aspects of military ecology in the management of natural resource and environmental relations by forming the environmental component of military-oriented professional competencies. The purpose of this article is to develop and present a methodological approach to the formation of a system of generalized knowledge and skills among cadets as the basis of the environmental component of military-oriented professional competencies in terms of conducting rational use measures. The achievement of this goal is possible on the basis of the implementation of the principles of environmental management and the psychological and pedagogical foundations of the ecologization of professional education. The expected result of the implementation of the methodology is an increase in the rational nature management culture.

Methodology of the study. During the preparation of the article methods of generalization (of pedagogical experience and experience of military specialists) and modeling in the course of determining educational strategies were used, and a pedagogical experiment was also conducted, including checking the formation of cognitive, affective and behavioral components of the culture of rational use of resources. Results. The article defines the components of the culture of rational use of resources that underlie the created competencies; presents a model for the implementation of the principles of environmental management on the example of the formation of methods of rational use of water resources; provides examples of the implementation of content-activity relationships in the educational process of a military university; justifies the criteria and presents the formulations of tasks for assessing the quality of achieving an educational result; describes the results of the first year of implementing the methodology in educational practice.

Conclusion. The materials of the article may be of interest both for scientific and pedagogical staff of military universities, as well as for graduate students and undergraduates studying in pedagogical specialties.
