Sustainable' sustainability: Preparing Australia's future citizens for informed decision-making through socially responsible science education

这项教育研究将可持续发展作为国家优先事项。它通过培养中学生参与基于困境的科学和价值观学习来有效应对国家可持续发展问题的能力，将中学生作为未来的决策者。对社会负责的科学教育促进知识和科学素养技能。对社会的好处包括将研究成果应用于学校、教育系统和大学，这些学校、教育系统和大学进行世界级科学研究的长期能力将在一定程度上取决于学校科学的进步。由于优先研究资助促进了科学和可持续性研究，学校的科学教育应该相应地取得进展。

This educational study addresses sustainability as a national priority. It focuses on secondary students as future decision makers through developing their ability to respond effectively to national sustainability issues by engaging in dilemma-based science and values learning. Socially responsible science education promotes knowledge and scientific literacy skills. Benefits to the community include application of research results to schools, education systems, and universities whose long-term ability to conduct world-class scientific research will partly be dependent on improvements in school science. Since priority research funding promotes science and sustainability research, science education in schools should progress commensurately.
