A proposed vision for including green economy concepts in science textbooks for the first intermediate grade

Abstract

The current research aims to provide a proposed vision for including green economy concepts in science books for the first intermediate grade. The research used the descriptive approach, and the research sample consisted of science books for the first intermediate grade in the first, second and third semesters. A list of green economy concepts was prepared, and a content analysis card was prepared. The results of the study showed a low degree of inclusion of green economy concepts in science books for the first intermediate grade, as it was very low in the science book for the first intermediate grade in the first and second semesters and intermediate in the third semester. In light of the results of the study, the researcher presented a proposal to include green economy concepts in science books for the first intermediate grade. The study recommended including green economy concepts according to the list of concepts included in the current study within the scope and sequence system for science books for the intermediate stage, encouraging female students to implement classroom activities in light of green economy concepts that develop female students' awareness of the green economy inside and outside school.
