Environmental Education in the Science Curriculum in Different Countries: Turkey, Australia, Singapore, Ireland, and Canada
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the objectives of
environmental education topics in various countries. The present study is a
qualitative study and content analysis was used to analyze the data. The
results revealed that the categories of the objectives regarding the
environment topic in the primary education were found to be higher in Turkey
compared to other countries. The concept of the ozone layer in chemistry
curricula and the concept of biodiversity in biology curricula were intensively
included. No country had objectives regarding all subcategories in primary
education. There are no objectives regarding field trip in physics subject in
all countries. Objectives regarding the category of identifying issues and
research question were included only in Australia. However, the activities for environmental
education were determined to be at a low level in all the countries.
