The authors underline the relevance of referring to the actual living environment of a person, first and foremost, reifying the ideas of collaboration of nature and human, dialogue of cultures. The vector for expansion of educational environments is associated with cultural landscape, which has high educational potential. Cultural landscape is viewed as a product of ecological culture and source of its development in the context of cultural-ecological educational environment. The possibilities of formation of such environment in school education are determined. Methodological framework contains the environmental ideas, ideas of collaboration of nature and human within cultural landscape, as well as cultural-ecological approach. The scientific novelty consists in substantiation of the role of educational environment in the context of cultural-ecological paradigm. The authors formulate the definition of cultural-ecological educational environment; in a general form describe its conceptual and technological aspects that invoke the ecological senses and ecologically constructive actions, constitute ecologically oriented meanings as the basis for gradual formation of ecological culture in students. The conclusion is made that ecological culture as a multidimensional personality trait may be formed within the framework of the “vapid” educational content and isolated space of educational establishment.
