Abstract:

Research background: For many years, the authors have been dealing with the issues of
student inventiveness and the related innovation and creativity. The presented work refers to
the sources, understood as shaping the pro-engineering attitudes of young people, which in
effect translates into the creation of new, often innovative solutions in the field of technology.
Purpose: The aim of the research is to identify activities related to knowledge in the field of
science and technology during the period of attendance at secondary school. These activities
include knowledge and skills acquired at school and other relationships between young people
and science and technology resulting from passions and passions. An additional goal is to
indicate proposals for development in this area, mainly concerning the teaching process.
Methodology: The source of data for the conducted analyses are the results of surveys
conducted in 2021. The analysis of the acquired data was carried out using the AHP (Analytic
Hierarchy Process) method. The AHP method, by incorporating expert opinions, allows you to
achieve an additional goal. This is an original approach to the analysis and interpretation of
survey results. It will not replace classical statistical analyses of varying complexity, but it can
be a kind of complement.
Findings: The implementation of the research indicated a significant interest of young people
in the issues of science and technology, and the obtained data allowed to take a comprehensive
look at the education of young people in this area and present suggestions for the modification
of teaching forms. This may contribute to reducing the shortage of engineering staff and
researchers creating new innovative solutions in many countries. This will be an important
factor in economic development based on innovative technologies.
