Abstract

Reports and interprets the rankings of Rodger Bybee's 12 global-environmental issues/threats by first and second year engineering students (n=175) at the Technical University of Krakow, Poland. Results indicate that personal experience with local environmental issues are the most important determinant for ranking global environmental threats. Discusses implications for increasing the impact of school learning through the use of the constructivist learning model. (Author/MM)
