Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the general principles of environmental protection and the broader social and ethical framework that influences educational work in schools. The course includes an overview of the major environmental issues affecting different components of the environment and methods for their protection. Without this knowledge, it is impossible to understand the rationale behind practical conservation measures. Additionally, practical sessions involve discussions and exercises focused on the daily application of sustainable development principles in school operations and student education.
