目的
本文的目的是研究可持续发展课程的影响，该课程旨在通过有意识地解决可持续发展问题并让社区合作伙伴参与，引发学生偏好及其作为消费者、员工和公民角色的可衡量的变革。
设计/方法论/途径
该研究是使用混合方法进行的。 Q-方法帮助在课程前后创建对可持续态度和行为具有相似偏好的学生群体；探讨了态度转变的最重要特征并确定转变的阶段。对每位参与者的深入访谈有助于理解和解释改变偏好的动机，并产生对感知的转变过程的个人反思。
研究结果
Q-方法强调了利益相关者的角色如何从三个前置因素转变为三个后置因素以及整个群体。根据从“无转型”到“变革推动者行为”的反思性深入访谈，确定了转型变革的七个阶段。
实际意义
研究结果为评估和拥抱可持续发展课程的变革潜力提供了新的视角。
原创性/价值
通过测量课程前后的心态和行为偏好来评估可持续发展课程对学生转变的影响仍然是一个研究不足的领域，特别是与 Q 方法相关的领域。另一个独特之处是如何捕捉参与社区合作伙伴对学生偏好的影响。个人责任的探索范围超越了环境意识，并通过检查消费者、员工和公民的优先事项，同时解决了各种利益相关者角色的参与者。
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to examine the impacts of a sustainability course that was designed to evoke measurable transformational changes in students’ preferences and in their roles as consumers, employees and citizens, via consciously addressing sustainability issues and involving a community partner.
Design/methodology/approach
The research was undertaken using mixed methods. Q-methodology helped create student groups with similar preferences for sustainable attitudes and behaviours before and after the course; the most important features of attitude changes and identify the phases of transformation were explored. In-depth interviews with each participant contributed to understanding and explaining the motivation for changing preferences and generated individual-level reflections about the perceived process of transformation.
Findings
Q-method highlighted how stakeholder roles were transformed from the three pre-factors to the three post-factors and for the whole group. Seven phases of transformational change are identified based on the reflective in-depth interviews from “no transformation” to “change agent behavior”.
Practical implications
Findings provide new perspectives for evaluating and embracing the transformational potential of sustainability courses.
Originality/value
Assessing the impacts of sustainability courses on students’ transformation via measuring their mindsets and behaviour preferences prior to and after a course is still an under-researched area, especially in relation to the Q-method. A further unique feature is how the influence of engaged community partner on students’ preferences is captured. The explored scope of individual responsibility goes beyond environmental awareness and addresses participants in various stakeholder roles simultaneously, by examining their priorities as consumers, employees and citizens.
