Research Question
- SQ: The implementation of the environmental program “Storm-Tossed Sea Rocks in Pelion Seaside”, achieved the empowerment of students in geoheritage values, geological values, aesthetic values, cultural values, ecological values of geodiversity, and sustainable development values.
3.3. Methods
- Aesthetic value. The aesthetic value of a geomorphic structure lies in the richness of the perceptual and emotional experiences offered by its aesthetic characteristics and properties, and in the way these perceptual and emotional experiences are constructed and correlated with each other [71].
- Cultural value. Cultural values are those cultural elements that modern Greek society accepts, shares, considers as part of its culture, values culturally and attaches value to. These elements include mythological, historical, and archaeological elements in relation to characteristics that could be considered as part of nature [72] (p. 129).
- Ecological value. Regarding ecological value, the definition of Cordell, Murphy, Riitters, and Harvard (2005) is adopted: “We define ecological value generally as the level of benefits that space, water, minerals, biota, and all other factors that make up natural ecosystems provide to support native life forms” [73] (p. 206).
- Sustainability value. Sustainability values are those values that promote attitudes and behaviors aimed at the reconciliation and strengthening of the links between economic development and environmental conservation, through the sustainable use of natural resources and the protection of the environment, the basic ecological processes, the support of life, and animal diversity [8,74].
- Q1. In the program, we saw images and live videos from sea rocks of Pelion. What impressed you about their presence when you first noticed them?
- Q2. We dealt with the mechanisms of creating sea rocks. Tell us, what impressed you most about the creation of sea rocks?
- Q3. Were our ancestors, the ancient Greeks, aware of the peculiarity of the geomorphology of the sea rocks? On what evidence do you base your answer?
- Q4. State (based on your personal opinion) the three most adverse effects that the pollution of a storm-tossed sea rock can have from the coarse oil of a marine oil slick.
4. Results and Discussion
- Q2-S2. “I never thought that the power of water and air could create such beautiful formations”. Here, we find that the student presents concepts which show both their empowerment in geological knowledge and geomorphic structure perception.
- Q2-S4. “I thought the sea rocks were cut off from big rocks and rolled on the beach and now I learned that they were created by the erosion of the waves for thousands of years”. What we can identify in the words of the student is a geological time perception which did not even exist before the implementation of the environmental program.
- Q2-S5. “I could not imagine that in the place of the arch of Mylopotamos, after thousands of years, there would be a separate sea stack, and on the adjacent beach the cliff could be transformed into an arch”. Here, we pinpoint concepts that refer to three codes (geological knowledge, geological time perception, geomorphic structures perception).
- Q4-S1: “It drives me crazy to think that a crime like this [meaning the oil spill], will destroy in one moment the sculptural expression of nature that has lasted millions of years, it will eliminate thousands of innocent lives [he means sea life], and the whole place will be just desolate”. In this expression, we find semantic patterns that indicate the strengthening of geoconservation value perception and geoethical perception in the student. Of course, we find also concepts of geological time perception as well as geological knowledge. What is more, we encounter expression of negative emotions that confirm the development of life value [6] (p. 2). In conclusion, based on the results of the research within the category 1—geological value empowerment, we find that students developed the geological value after showing that they acquired geological knowledge, realized geological time, recognized elements of geomorphological formations (sea arches, sea caves, sea stacks), and acquired the ability to identify and describe different types of reliefs, the ability to identify natural factors that help the processes of change of the coastal environment (tectonic action, wind, sea level change, mainly wave action), and the mechanisms of retreat of coastal cliffs. They also realized the effects of pollution, the need for protection where humans intervene, and the need for rational management with the goal of geoconservation. Eventually, what can be inferred is that the educational program contributed to the dissemination of recognition of the relational value of geoformations; consequently, it disseminated the moral basis for the support of the “in situ” conservation of these geological goods, which even lack a commercial value [76].
- Q1-S1: “The beauty, of course, [looks ecstatic] by the sea, the rocks make the beaches look more than unique. They are simply insurmountable”.
- Q1-S3: “The majesty of the rocks. The various strange shapes that remind me of a sci-fi movie set on exoplanets [looks fascinated]. They are wonders of nature”.
- Q3-S1. “Of course, they were aware of this miracle. This is evident from the fact that the ancient Greeks associated these places with mythical deities. Didn’t they do that in every special place?”
- Q3-S5. “They had, and we did not have [Shows coyness]. I could not imagine that in the place where our father takes us swim, Achilles’ mother was trapped [She looks impressed]”.
- Q4-S3. “What can I say? That birds will disappear, fish, sea plants and all other animals? That those giants will be insanely dirty? That we will all be ashamed of them? [he means the people responsible for the pollution and looks disheartened]”.
- Q4-S4. “We will not be able to admire them. We will not be able to say that this here is the place where Achilles’ mother was born. We will not be able to swim with the Spari. [fish species from the Aegean Sea: Sparus (Diplodus annularis)]”.
- Q4-S2. “Sea life will just disappear, fishermen will starve, hotel owners as well, villages will be abandoned. I just feel sorry for my classmates… [nodding in disappointment]”. Here, we observe conceptual patterns that feature economic value perception by the student (“Fishermen and hoteliers will be hungry”), as well as social value perception and geotouristic value perception (“Hoteliers will be hungry”).
- Q4-S5. “Fish and birds will die, shops will close, we will not be able to go on holidays there, everything will be completely destroyed”. Here, too, we observe patterns that show the development of economic, social, and geotouristic values perception.
- Q2-S3. “I was impressed that nature does this with millions of years of work to make us all happy. You [the teachers], us, our children and our children’s children”.
- Q4-S1: “It drives me crazy to think that a crime like this [meaning the oil spill], will destroy in one moment the sculptural expression of nature that has lasted millions of years, it will eliminate thousands of innocent lives [he means sea life], and the whole place will be just desolate”. In it we find codes from all categories, a common finding in all the answers of all the participating students but to a lesser degree. The latter leads us to assume that geocultural heritage values coexist more or less in individuals who have received educational empowerment, even in some of them. However, new research can confirm that.
