The study assesses the perceived impact of climate change on student teachers in Nigerian tertiary institutions. The study adopted descriptive survey research design. Two research questions guided the study while two hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. The population of the study comprised of all the students of 2020/2021 final year Degree students of Alex Ekwueme Federal University and NCE students of Enugu State College of Education (Technical)....

Bangladesh is one of the most affected countries by climate change and extremely vulnerable to environmental degradation. Young people, as the new generation, need to understand the consequences of climate change and its impact on their lives and the lives of their fellow citizens. This chapter presents the findings from a systematic evaluation of Bangladeshi school curriculum, and how it prepares the future generation for climate change adaptation and ensures a sustainable future for them....

Societies across the globe are battling with the effects of climate change as seen in the scientific evidence produced periodically by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Africa has been identified as more vulnerable to climate change given its weak governance systems, low technology, dependency on ecological resources for livelihood as well as conflict and high poverty levels. Educational responses to climate change though recognized, are yet to be explored by various...

The Himalayas are considered highly vulnerable to climate change, and hence making adaptation strategies for the area to cope with the effects of climate change is crucial. These strategies should be developed and implemented with grassroots participation at local to regional levels. For informed participation, the local inhabitants need to be conscious of climate change and its implications. Hence, we explored the level of awareness among school students and their participation in actions...

It is undoubtedly clear that climate change is happening, and its adverse impacts could reverse the progress made toward meeting sustainable development goals. The global crisis poses one of the most severe challenges to reducing poverty and existing inequalities, especially in developing countries that are projected to be highly vulnerable to climate variability. However, the education sector provides an untapped opportunity for successful climate change adaptation and mitigation through...

University students are very likely to experience temperature steps before class in hot summer. This study aims to investigate the overall effects of step changes on students’ subjective perception, physiological response and learning performance, so as to explore an optimal thermal condition for classrooms in hot summer. Four typical temperature step conditions (S6: 34 °C-28 °C, S8: 34 °C-26 °C, S10: 34 °C24 °C, S12: 34 °C–22 °C) were developed to conduct experiments on sixteen...

Countries in the developing world are increasingly vulnerable to climate change effects and have a lesser capacity to adapt. Consideration can be given to their indigenous knowledge systems for an integrated approach to education, one which is more holistic and applicable to their context. This paper presents a systematic review of the indigenous knowledge systems (IKSs) deployed for climate change adaptation in the developing world and advances implications for climate change education. A...

Children spend a significant proportion of their time at school and in school buildings. A healthy learning environment that supports children should be thermally conducive for learning and working. Here, we aimed to study the relations between indoor classroom temperatures and learner absenteeism as a proxy for children’s health and well-being. This one-year prospective study that spanned two calendar years (from June 2017 to May 2018) entailed measurement of indoor classroom temperature...

The COVID-19 pandemic affected several countries' educational systems, particularly on platforms for teaching and learning. One of the countries that have shifted its educational environment to an online and modular learning modality is the Philippines. As a result, several researchers conducted a study into the various factors that have been linked to student academic performance. This study focused on the environmental factors that affected senior high school student's academic performance...
