The The effect of indonesian local culture integrated students' environmental awareness on sdgs: pls-sem approach

Various ways have been carried out in the world of education to raise environmental awareness for students, but the efforts so far have not had a significant impact on sustainable development. Students have not fully demonstrated awareness of the environment. Therefore, this research was conducted with the aim of measuring student environmental awareness (EA) which integrates Indonesian local culture towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This research design uses survey research. The method used in this study is a quantitative method with purposive sampling technique with a sample of 362 Biology Education students spread throughout Indonesia. This research questionnaire uses a Likert scale of 1-5. Data collection used a questionnaire containing statements totaling 17 items. All indicators as exogenous variables except SDGs as endogenous variables. This study used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis through the SmartPLS application. The research results show that there is an influence between culturally integrated environmental awareness, awareness of responsibility, and finding solutions to environmental problems against the SDGs. However, the indicator of realizing its role in the environment has no effect on the SDGs, even though the simultaneous influence of all exogenous variables is in the moderate category on the SDGs. The conclusion from this study is that there is a positive influence between culturally integrated environmental awareness, student awareness of responsibility for the environment, and awareness in finding solutions to environmental problems towards the SDGs, but still needs to be improved. Strengthening Indonesian local culture rooted in local wisdom in growing environmental awareness is urgently needed to achieve sustainable development goals. The recommendation in this study is that the use of an active learning approach, for example STEAM, which can stimulate creative problem-solving skills for environmental problems, can be a solution in developing students' environmental awareness.

Climate change and health: Changes in student environmental knowledge and awareness due to the implementation of a mandatory elective at the Medical Faculty of Ulm?

According to the World Health Organization, climate change constitutes the single greatest threat to human health. However, the health care system contributes to climate change worldwide through its high CO2 emissions. In order to make future physicians more aware of this issue and to expand medical education to include climate-related aspects, the mandatory 28 academic hours elective "Climate Change and Health" for students of human medicine in the preclinical study stage was implemented at the Medical Faculty of Ulm in the 2020/21 winter semester. Our accompanying study investigated 1. in what form the topic of climate change can be successfully integrated into the study of human medicine in a manner that includes student opinions and2. whether being required to take an elective on the topic led to changes in student environmental knowledge and awareness. Personal individual interviews were conducted with all n=11 students after the course in a pilot that was carried out in the 2020/21 winter semester to determine course feasibility and student acceptance. The students were also able to evaluate the course using an evaluation form and were asked to complete a questionnaire on their environmental knowledge and awareness before and after the course. The course was revised on the basis of the results and offered again in the 2021 summer semester with an intervention group (n=16, participation in the mandatory elective) and a comparison group (n=25, no participation in the mandatory elective). The intervention group was asked to evaluate the course on the evaluation form. Both groups completed the environmental questionnaire at the same time. The positive feedback from students for both semesters indicates a good feasibility and acceptance of the course. Student environmental knowledge was increased in both semesters. However, there were only few observable changes in student environmental awareness. This paper illustrates how the topic of climate change and health can be embedded into medical studies. The students considered climate change an important topic and drew added value from the course for their future work in healthcare. The study shows that knowledge transfer at the university level is an effective way to educate the young generation on climate change and its impacts.

Factors of environmental awareness formation in students

The relevance of the study is due to the understanding of the impossibility of solving environmental problems only by technical means and the need for worldview changes in this regard. Today, the problem of environmental awareness belongs to the so-called global socio-philosophical problems studied by world and national philosophy. In today's conditions, it is important to study the dynamics of environmental consciousness, which is seen as a holistic phenomenon that requires a person to have an active attitude towards nature and himself.
 The main function of ecological consciousness is to ensure optimisation of relations in the society-nature system, prevention of a global environmental catastrophe, and resolution of the global environmental crisis. Therefore, we cannot underestimate the importance and necessity of developing environmental awareness in the younger generation.Environmental knowledge is of particular importance for university students as future environmental managers. After all, mastering any profession should be based on the priority role of environmental knowledge and relevant skills, which will allow them to predict the consequences of their professional activities. In addition, it helps to involve students in creative cognitive activities. However, the awareness of modern youth about environmental issues is fragmented and undifferentiated; they are better aware of global environmental problems than of the problems of their local area. A significant number of students consider themselves uninvolved in solving environmental problems. Therefore, the necessary conditions for developing students' environmental awareness should be: understanding their own responsibility for the state of the environment and their dependence on it; developing a system of values that includes nature; developing practical skills and a certain behavioural strategy.In this context, it is important not only to understand the concept of "environmental awareness" and its structural elements, but also to search for factors that influence its formation in students. After all, only by understanding the specifics of the process of forming environmental awareness in students, it is possible to solve the problems faced by young people on the way to understanding their own place in the world, building environmental behaviour, etc.
