摘要:This paper presents an applied piece of research produced in collaboration with teachers and students from Molise, a region of Italy. Both the research process and the geography curriculum (centred on sustainable development) are documented. The teachers have concentrated on the issue from a theoretical point of view, and have perfected some didactic approaches based on field lessons and reflections on the experience. The experiment (pilot) has demonstrated the validity of the research. The teachers have established the guide-lines of a geography curriculum for sustainable development which can extend from primary to secondary school. It is hoped that Planet readers in the UK and elsewhere will find it interesting to learn about how education for sustainable development is being taken forward in schools in part of Italy.
