Abstract

This study aimed to analyse and understand the perception about Education for Sustainability from the perspective of secondary school students in the Basque Autonomous Community by means of a qualitative methodological strategy. Specifically, the study was conducted in four educational centres with a total of 39 students, through discussion groups in a total of eight meetings. Environmental education documents of the centres were analysed, and a non-participatory observation process was also applied. The main results showed that the students had sufficient knowledge and information about the socio-environmental problem; however, their behaviour did not correspond to their way of thinking. In order to generate a real impact on attitudes and habits, environmental education should have, not only more presence in the school curriculum, but more experiential approaches and the implication of school managers.

摘要

本研究旨在通过定性方法策略，从巴斯克自治区中学生的角度分析和理解对可持续发展教育的看法。具体而言，该研究是在四个教育中心进行的，共有 39 名学生，通过讨论小组总共进行了八次会议。分析了中心的环境教育文件，并应用了非参与式观察过程。主要结果表明，学生对社会环境问题有足够的知识和信息；然而，他们的行为并不符合他们的思维方式。为了对态度和习惯产生真正的影响，环境教育不仅应该更多地出现在学校课程中，
