摘要：The purpose of this study was to survey the awareness, attitudes and actions of Thai,pre-service, industrial-education teachers (N=390) regarding economic, social andenvironmental sustainability. Survey items were derived from learning objectivesprovided by UNESCO in relation to 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). Researchquestions focused on overall results as well as analyses to determine differences based onprogram type and year of study. Results showed an average overall higher percentage inthe categories of attitudes (90%) and action (91%) than for awareness (69%). The lowestranked items in the categories of attitudes and action were related to SDG 5, genderequality. Pre-service teachers in year two of their program reported significantly higherlevels of awareness than those in their first, third, fourth or fifth year. There were nosignificant differences for program type. Implications point to the value for highereducation institutes, programs and instructors of identifying sustainability issues mostrelevant to their context in terms of culture and subject area. Results also pointed to thepossibility that higher education institutions may be able to address aspects ofsustainability through other initiatives (e.g., mental health awareness days) that are notnecessarily branded specifically as sustainability issues.
