Abstract:
China′s national parks are feasible places for nature education with their rich natural resources and profound cultural connotations. The practice of nature education in China is steadily advancing, and national parks, as an important window of nature education, play an important role in the promotion of nature education concept system. This paper reviews the origin, development and practice of nature education concepts in China, discusses the connotation, significance and key role of nature education, explores the current situation of nature education in national parks with the help of semantic network analysis and other methods, and compares the development of nature education activities in the existing five national parks from the aspects of nature education interpreters, resource types, education methods, theme content, educational facilities and main audience groups. Clearing the shortcomings in standardization, curriculum, interpreters, facilities utilization and the scope of the audience, specific implementation suggestions are put forward. The nature education of national parks is expected to move from "sharing for all " to "co-education for all".
