Students hold misconceptions about many issues and subjects, including in respect of climate change. Most alarming about misconceptions is that if people continue to build knowledge on such misunderstandings, this may have serious impacts on their learning. Following a brief literature review on cooperative learning, this paper adopts a research methodology which a) defines what a misconception is, b) lists possible sources of misconceptions, c) discusses five misconceptions students often have about climate change and d) puts forward some cooperative learning techniques teachers can use to handle the problem.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">168-182 </style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walter Filho</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paul Pace</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Evangelos Manolas</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE CONTRIBUTION OF EDUCATION TOWARDS MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF CLIMATE CHANGE</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Baltic Science Education</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Active learning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">formal and non-formal education</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">June/2010</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://oaji.net/articles/2014/987-1405171586.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper outlines the contribution the education sector can provide in meeting the challenges of climate change, worldwide. It offers an analysis of the means via which education, awareness and training can help the global efforts to tackle climate change and lists a set of practical activities which may assist various groups in handling climate matters as part of formal and non-formal education. The paper concludes by providing a warning: without proper emphasis to educational approaches, the desired (and indeed) changes in attitudes and behaviour as well as the motivation needed in order to engage people in reducing the impacts they may have on the climate, may not be fully achieved.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">142-155 </style></section></record></records></xml>
