Abstract
This article analyzes the pedagogical opportunities for using the traditional ecological experience of the Uzbek people in the educational process of general secondary schools. The paper examines the essence of the concept of traditional ecological knowledge and experience, its place in the modern system of ecological education, and the methodological ways of integrating into the teaching and upbringing process the culture of attitudes toward nature formed through folklore, customs, crafts, and agricultural traditions. Based on the research findings, a practical model aimed at forming ecological culture in students through interdisciplinary integration, extracurricular educational work, and project-based activities is proposed. The article is of practical importance for general secondary school teachers, methodologists, and researchers in pedagogy.
