“…Elnashaie [41] propose and encourage the research of environmental education with direct application to engineering, chemical, and material fields to improve the industrial domain and ensure sustainability education for a new green market. Applying virtual reality and the possible effects of environmental education can also stimulate students ethical attitude, a topic under research for Liu et al [42] and the effects of environmental education.…”

Environmental education and education for the environment today play an important role toward sustainability. Environmental education provided by higher education institutions has an important impact on training and preparing the future generation for a green society. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship among perception, attitude, and environmental behavior of the university students enrolled in different specialization fields (engineering electrical, mechanical, and economic). A total of 358 students participated in this survey conducted at the North Center University of Baia Mare. To collect data to measure students’ environmental education, perception, students’ attitudes, and behavior a Likert scale was used. In this study, it was revealed that students receiving academic education are involved in activities regarding environmental protection (volunteer, warning, participation, recycling of materials) using the new product and “greener” alternative energy. As a result of the t-test performed, it was put forward that there was no difference in their level of perception regarding the importance of environmental education. As a result of the correlation analysis, a positive relation was identified between the perception, attitude, and behavior variables.

“…Some studies have presented that environmental education contributes to promoting a higher ecological awareness level, environmental care attitude, environmental knowledge, and skill [42][43][44][45][46]. Many different studies examined environmental education stimulated environmental ethics and environmental literacy, supported environmentally friendly behavior in the community, maintained environmental quality, established environmental experience and value, realized environmental protection, and achieved sustainable development of the natural environment [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55]. These studies present a range of intended results for environmental education's role for knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors to develop and support environmental actions positively impacting general environmental excellence of standard and preservation consequence.…”

<p>This research and development aim at knowing the effectiveness of web-based animation videos application on environmental education of elementary school students in East Jakarta in Indonesia. Web-based animation videos for environmental education produced consisted of climate change, mangrove forest, waste recycling, biodiversity, and ozone depletion animation video pages. Student environmental education measured was related to satisfying student natural curiosity, enhancing environmental awareness, and strengthening student pro-conservation values. In the conclusion, it is highlighted that there is a positive effect of web-based animation videos application on student environmental education at elementary school students in Jakarta in Indonesia</p>

“…Similarly, Flagg (2016) found the strongest learning outcomes for minority students who engaged with digital learning tools. Liu, Gong, and Chen (2018) identified positive learning and sustainability outcomes from a related virtual reality teaching approach. Chen and Chou (2016) tested and elicited evaluative responses from three groups of students, using either only virtual devices, only a human teacher, or a combination of both.…”

As demands on the environment continue to intensify, it becomes increasingly urgent to act sustainably, responsibly and respectfully, to protect and restore environments. Digital technologies, including videoconferencing, mobile apps and virtual and augmented realities, can provide new ways of engaging students in environmental stewardship. Such technologies can pique student interest, while enabling them to capture experiences of local and distal environments, to collect data and share their findings with broader audiences. This article critically explores innovative, formal and informal learning practices in experiential environmental education approaches among schools, families and communities, such as citizen science projects. It draws on qualitative case study vignettes, as well as the authors' previous work and broader literature, to consider the potential and limitations of such technologies and approaches. The key question concerns how existing and emerging technologies might serve as bridges or barriers to apprenticing young people into globally-minded, environmentally responsible and respectful behaviours.
