The first research field comprises four studies and focuses on the environmental literacy of 15-years-old students in different counties based on PISA data.

The second purpose is to identify the consensus of experts on environmental literacy to revise the definition and framework of environmental literacy. Finally, it aims to integrate the concept of the environment into teacher education and STEM education. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and is a new science education (SE) reform approach in different countries. The first research field includes four studies based on PISA data. In the first research field, it is determined both a the factors that affect the environmental literacy of 15-year old students in Germanya , and a the change in the environmental literacy of German students from 2006 to 2015a , respectively (Study-1 and |
