Educational values pertain to the importance of knowledge, learning, and understanding in relation to environmental issues. They emphasize the role of education in promoting awareness, critical thinking, and informed decision-making for sustainable practices.
Educational values are like a compass guiding us through unfamiliar terrain. Just as a compass helps us navigate unknown paths by providing direction and knowledge, educational values equip us with the necessary tools to make informed choices about environmental issues.
