Outline of Final Research Achievements

The importance of the experience-based environmental education is insisted on. However, an experience-based environmental education is not tied to an environmental consideration action immediately. Rather we should consider that the experience-based environmental education leads to environmental consideration actions for the first time by passing through the process of the self-judgment for the environmental value.
Therefore I built the environmental education program for university students. It is a program to promote active learning and is a program to produce sweets by upcycling of the garbage. It may be said that it is a project based learning program. It becomes activity content called the Eco-Sweets activity, and the university student comes to be able to learn ability to evaluate feasibility through various challenges by oneself.
