Аннотация

This review examines how scientific knowledge about artificial insect-rearing technologies can be used to support biology and environmental education. It addresses the educational value of studying insect development, species-specific rearing requirements, artificial and semi-synthetic diets, and the monitoring of survival and reproduction. The review is guided by the question: how can the stages and quality-control principles of insect rearing be translated into evidence-based learning activities without presenting untested classroom outcomes as established results? A narrative review approach was used to organize the supplied literature on entomophagous insects, biological plant protection, insect pathogens, and forest-pest management. The synthesis identifies five learning themes: life cycles and developmental biology; relationships between organisms and their environment; experimental observation and record-keeping; evidence-based comparison of rearing conditions; and responsible application of biological-control knowledge. Suggested activities include constructing life-cycle diagrams, comparing rearing protocols, analyzing hypothetical monitoring data, and evaluating the ecological implications of biological control. The article does not report a classroom intervention or measured student outcomes. It concludes that insect-rearing technologies can provide a context-rich resource for inquiry-based teaching, while their pedagogical effectiveness should be evaluated through future classroom studies.
