| Popis | This study highlights the importance of integrating remote sensing methods and materials into the school environment, particularly at the primary and secondary school levels. The integration of environmental and digital learning into educational programmes and strategies is an area that requires ongoing commitment and prominence. One approach to achieving this goal is to harness the potential of remote sensing in the classroom. Remote sensing is a multidisciplinary field linking geography, biology, physics, mathematics, and computer science. As a combination of the study of natural sciences and new technologies, and despite being a rapidly growing field driving high demand for skilled workers, this young discipline has yet to establish an adequate position in schools. Remote sensing methods and materials, can demonstrate, in practically real-time, environmental problems such as deforestation, fires, desertification, water pollution, rising water temperatures, glacial melting, drought, and many other phenomena. This overview study presents new perspectives alongside a list of arguments to support the importance of using remote sensing methods and materials in schools. |
