出版社:Euro-Mediterranean Centre for Educational Research
摘要:The primary purpose of this study was to assess the level of students¡¯
awareness about sustainability issues at the Hashemite University in Jordan. A
30-item instrument, adapted from Dunkerly-Kolb (1998), was used to collect data
from a sample of 230 preservice science and vocational teachers during the
academic year 2005-2006. Results indicated that preservice science and
vocational teachers showed medium level of awareness about sustainability
issues. Additionally, results indicated that participants appeared to be
independent from their natural surroundings. The study suggested few practical
solutions for faculty members and for the university administration to incorporate
sustainability principles into university curricula.
