Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effectiveness of implementing training materials and SDG activities for future geography teachers. The experimental discipline "Climate Change and its Consequences" was developed and implemented. The sample of participants in this study consisted of 121 3rd and 4th-year students with experience in teaching practice. The renting method checks the methodology's effectiveness according to the "Knowledge in the Field of Sustainable Development Goals" questionnaire before and after introducing the discipline. During one semester, the participants completed the course, and they were also provided with SDG-oriented webinars on the topic "Geographical Analysis of the Sustainable Development Goals" and events (Brain-ring and Olympiad). When studying the literacy rate according to the SDGs, 121 respondents showed an average increase in results by an average of 13.6% with a p-value of 0.049 (p<0.05). The results obtained indicate the effectiveness of this practice. This represents essential information for education and sustainable development.
