摘要

围绕塑料的全球生产和使用存在许多环境问题。开发了三个科学课程(K-2年级，3-5年级和6-8年级)，向青少年介绍塑料的过去，现在和未来。该课程采用以研究为基础的方法设计，以有效的科学教学法为基础，为年轻人提供探索可行的塑料替代品的机会，并培养必要的知识和技能，以帮助减轻与塑料生产、使用和处置相关的环境影响。评估结果表明，年轻人提高了对聚合物的理解，并有意帮助减少塑料对环境的影响。

Sustainable Polymers: New 4-H STEM Curricula

There are many environmental issues surrounding the global production and use of plastics. Three science curricula (Grades K-2, 3-5, and 6-8) were developed to introduce youth to the past, present, and future of plastics. Designed using research-based methods and grounded in effective science pedagogy, the curricula provide young people opportunities to explore viable alternatives to plastics and develop knowledge and skills necessary to help mitigate environmental impacts associated with the production, use and disposal of plastics. Evaluation results demonstrated that youth improved their understanding of polymers and intention to help reduce impacts of plastics on the environment.
