Abstract

The aim is to evaluate the effect of a sustainable development-oriented course on the environmental citizenship attributes of undergraduate students at a technical university. We discuss the pedagogical and didactic aspects of the course and its linkages to sustainable development education, define the elements of the educational intervention, and present the case study from Kaunas University of Technology. The presentation discusses results from a randomized pre-group –post-group quasi-experimental survey. The results prove the positive effect of the studied educational intervention on the environmental citizenship of undergraduate students.
