Description | Climate literacy is crucial for future low-carbon living. On the basic of our research, we designed a three years course for upper primary school in order to improve the climate literacy of the population. We have performed a three year testing of the improved curriculum at the pilot upper primary school. The curriculum was designed for grades 7 to 9 of the Czech educational system and can be modified for other countries. |
