Sažetak
Puppet-character as a primary means of expression in puppetry is a self-sufficient medium in both education and training. Thus the puppet-character as a permanent and temporary member of the educational group is highly effective in the educational process of pre-school and primary school levels and is also stimulating, in terms of creativity, for the students – future educators and teachers. The paper summarizes many years of individual experience of a number of educators and teachers, as well as of the students from the Faculty of Education of Zagreb – Department of Petrinja, trained in puppetry. Both for educators and teachers, in their daily work with children, and for students, certain puppet-characters are carriers, and the tellers, of separate and related educational, problem-solving and instructional contents. In this procedure, by educators and teachers previously designed and played puppet plays and etudes serve as the starting point for the problem-educational processes or interdisciplinary natural science and verbal-artistic educational and instructional activities. After an introductory starting point, further educational or problem solving process with a particular content or theme is realised in individual and group work with all members of the educational group. In this process, the topic (content or problem) is introduced in detail, its various aspects are perceived, it is questioned and, finally, an acceptable attitude is investigated and selected, or an acceptable solution, if the topic is related to the eventual problem. A similar process is the one of educational or teaching content, when the course content is presented by a puppet play, and is repeated through individual and group etudes and plays in different variations; also, the adopted level of knowledge, already applied through the medium of puppet-character, is tested and evaluated. The paper analyses the puppet-characters as permanent and temporary members of the educational groups of various kinds. The human characters are Pero – six year old boy, Tip – a security guard, Sonja – a student from abroad and Mara – a milkmaid; animal character is Skakač – the frog and Fairy Mila is a fantastic creature. Those puppet-characters come in different forms: of hand puppets, rod puppets, table puppets or flat puppets.
