“…With the swift growth of the social economy, the increasingly diverse social environment has put forward higher requirements for the training and development of teachers [1][2][3]. For current primary education, the core value is to promote the advancement of students' abilities and help students achieve satisfactory academic performance.…”

It aims to perfect the preservice training system and improve the teaching quality of primary schools. The research methods are questionnaire survey and interview, and 154 teachers from 16 primary schools under the background of smart city development are used as the research objects. Questionnaires are distributed to them, and the Internet of Things (IoT) technology is used to analyze the adaptation law of primary school teachers’ preservice training and to conduct in-depth research on teacher education and training strategies according to the relevant curriculum system. The results manifest that the IoT technology can effectively process the questionnaire data. From the perspective of the smart city, more than 70% of art teachers and physical education (PE) teachers know nothing about their professional level, and nearly 40% of music teachers know little about their professional level of teachers. In addition, more than 50% of the teachers surveyed do not have a clear understanding of their own professional standards, teacher training standards, primary school training strategies, and guarantee mechanisms of the teaching effect. It means that teachers in the progress of smart cities should strengthen the training of professional level and education policy during preservice training. After the evaluation and training system is established according to the ratio of “25.4% of primary school students’ growth knowledge +42.7% of professional knowledge +31.9% of teacher education curriculum knowledge”, students’ learning enthusiasm increased by 23%, and their academic performance increased by 15%. This indicates that the training system can ensure the good learning effect of students. Therefore, the research on preservice training strategies and guarantee mechanisms for primary and secondary school teachers in smart cities by the IoT provides a certain direction for subsequent teacher training.

“…For example, the SDGs are closely related to environmental issues such as ensuring the availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all (SDG 6) [96] or ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all (SDG 13) [97]. Topics related to good health and well-being (SDG 3) or economic productivity through diversification, technological modernisation and innovation promote decent jobs for all (SDG 8); these categories are crucial for identifying teaching and learning focuses [98].…”

The Effects of Using Socio-Scientific Issues and Technology in Problem-Based Learning: A Systematic Review

et al. 2021

Currently, a growing number of learning institutions at all educational levels are including problem-based learning (PBL) in their curricula. PBL scenarios often utilise technology and socio-scientific Issues (SSI), which enables the simultaneous learning of content and creative thinking and working skills needed in generating new knowledge for the future. In this sense, using SSI and technological tools in PBL learning environments can be viewed as a starting point for acquiring and integrating new knowledge. However, there is no comprehensive knowledge regarding the possibilities of this approach. The objective of this systematic review is to produce this knowledge via the PRISMA method. The strategy is used to explore the effects of the described approach through implementations conducted at secondary and undergraduate levels. The data consisted of 33 research articles that were categorised via qualitative content analysis. According to the results, PBL scenarios exploit mainly local SSIs that link scientific knowledge with a meaningful context for students. Technology is principally used in offering technical support for teaching tasks. Lastly, these results are discussed from the technological pedagogical science knowledge (TPASK) framework perspective, which proposes guidelines for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

“…The study carried out by Puertas-Aguilar et al (2021) shows that PAS teacher training aiming to promote sustainability-related skills must consider EE and the SDGs, besides of the scientific content of the subject as well as its didactics (pedagogy). In addition, for PASNE to achieve an authentic EE, the practitioner must be aware of the importance of knowing, living, feeling, and respecting natural environments.…”

Environmental Education in Initial Training: Effects of a Physical Activities and Sports in the Natural Environment Program for Sustainable Development

et al. 2022

Training for sustainable development is an educational challenge of prime importance. Physical activity and sports in natural environments provide training committed to sustainability and environmental education. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of an undergraduate training program in Physical Activities and Sports in Natural Environments concerned with sustainable development. A total of 113 students from the Autonomous University of Madrid (Spain) who are studying a Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences and a Master’s Degree in Teacher Training for Secondary Education and High School (specializing in Physical Education) were involved. Specifically, we aimed to assess the impact of this training program on three dimensions related to Environmental Education (knowledge, behaviors, and attitudes). Its effect was also examined bearing in mind students’ sex, age and educational profile (sportive and educational). Mixed-methods were used: for the quantitative approach, data were collected with the Environmental Attitude in Physical Activities in Natural Environments validated scale; for the qualitative approach individual reflective diaries completed by students that attended the program were analyzed. The results show positive effects on the students regarding the three dimensions of Environmental Education, for both the sportive and educational training profiles. The quantitative results do not present significant differences concerning the gender variable, although the qualitative information shows that female students perceived a greater environmental sensitivity during their practices. Regarding the age variable, significant differences are found in the youngest students with an educational profile. To conclude, the study ratifies that the program carried out generated improvements in terms of knowledge, behaviors and attitudes toward the environment and sustainable development. Future research should use larger samples and consider other variables related to education for sustainability.
