摘要
There is general consensus regarding the pedagogical benefits that project-based learning (or PBL) may produce among students; that is why this methodology is presented as a suitable tool to make improvement on environmental awareness among high school students. The main objective of this experience is hence to analyze the effectiveness of PBL. To this end, an environmental project for the fourth course of compulsory Secondary Education was designed and implemented, and a pretest and a post-test were later applied so as to analyze the evolution of the environmental awareness among students after the application of the project. The project was developed in an appropriate way and good outcomes were produced; moreover, there was a notable improvement in the levels of environmental awareness after the study was completed.
