Makale Özeti:

Science and education for sustainability have recently become estranged. Both of
these learning areas are also experiencing issues that are affecting students’
understandings in these areas. This paper presents a framework of learning
containing 12 components that reconstructs the relationship between these two areas
and could have the potential to overcome their current issues. A 15 week science/education
for sustainability programme that was undertaken by 22 New Zealand
students aged 11-12 years was analysed in terms of the components of the proposed
framework. An interpretive analysis of the learning that took place showed beneficial
effects on students’ understandings. Not only did these students demonstrate
understandings of sustainability and development of their scientific literacy, they also
showed an emerging politicisation in that they were able to take action on an issue in
a number of ways. It was also suggested that further components could be added to
the proposed framework in order to develop additional knowledge and skills that
could enable students to gain a deeper understanding of and ability to make decisions
about the multifaceted environmental issues found in today’s world.
