| description | The study aimed to: 1) ascertain the current status of environmental
education (EE) for sustainable agriculture (SA) in 12 selected tertiary institutions in
Luzon, Philippines, and 2) develop a set of guidelines for institutional policies and
curriculum management for the integration of EE into the curriculum for SA.
A questionnaire-guided interview of 27 educational administrators and j'4
curriculum planners from the institutions was conducted for data collection. Data
were analyzed by frequency counts, percentages, means and standard deviations.
The status of the integration of EE into the curriculum for SA was rated by
respondents as "medium" level. Tertiary institutions offered EE and SA as separate
courses in their curricula and more EE courses were offered than SA courses. Respondents agreed to support the implementation of a clearly defined policy for the
integration of EE into the curriculum for SA. All (12) tertiary institutions have good
number of qualified and available teaching staff. Teaching materials were available
for appropriate teaching processes, although these must be further improved in terms
of quantity and quality. |
