Project Description 

Since the subject of bioethics is mostly used in the medical and medical fields, it has been seen that no high school learning outcomes or pedagogical structure is set up so far. In addition to these deficiencies, a needs analysis was conducted to measure the awareness of high school students on Bioethics. Prepared as a Google form, with this scale we aimed to reach as many students as possible in the shortest time. The scale prepared by Afacan and Demirci Güler on the attitudes of students towards a sustainable environment was applied to our target group as the concrete result, which helped us to determine the topics to be dealt with during the project.

Also, in the meeting held with the partners in order to increase the awareness of students, it was decided to consider the following topics in the project:

• globalization 

• climate change

• human development 

• ecosystem health

• minimalist living

• water resources 

• recycling

By addressing these topics, the following project activities are planned:

• Knowledge and competency framework for Bioethics in high school (Identification of learning outcomes for high school bioethics education)

• Creating interdisciplinary case/scenario-based course content

• Elective Course

• E-learning module on bioethics and sustainable environment (for teachers)

• Online pool of good practices on bioethics and sustainable environment
