Reflections on Integrating Environmental Education into Environmental Courses in China

随着全球环境问题的加剧和我国生态文明建设的深化，环境教育在培养环保人才和推动可持续发展中的地位日益凸显。本文基于国内外环境教育发展动态，结合我国环境类专业教育现状，系统讨论了将环境教育纳入环境类课程的必要性与可行性。通过分析国际经验与国内典型案例，提出了课程设计优化、教学方法创新、师资培训及多元化评价机制等实施策略。研究表明，环境教育融入核心课程可增强学生环境责任感与实践能力，助力国家“双碳”战略与生态文明建设，为全球可持续发展贡献中国方案。With the intensification of global environmental issues and the deepening of ecological civilization construction in China, the role of environmental education in cultivating environmental protection talents and promoting sustainable development has become increasingly prominent. Based on the development trends of environmental education at home and abroad, and combined with the current situation of environmental education in China’s environmental-related majors, this paper systematically discusses the necessity and feasibility of incorporating environmental education into environmental courses. By analyzing international experience and domestic typical cases, implementation strategies such as curriculum design optimization, innovation in teaching methods, teacher training, and diversified evaluation mechanisms are proposed. The study shows that integrating environmental education into core courses can enhance students’ sense of environmental responsibility and practical abilities, support the national “dual carbon” strategy and ecological civilization construction, and contribute a Chinese solution to global sustainable development.
