The main focus of the study was to determine the knowledge level of the certificate of
secondary education geography teachers when teaching the concepts of meteorology, environmental
education and climate change. The study involved observing and interviewing 24 classroom teachers
who were randomly selected from both rural and urban Morogoro. Teachers could demonstrate ability
to present the causes, extent and effects of pollution and wastes including most of the concepts of the
elements of weather and the use of power. But there was a disparity between the intended curriculum
and the implemented one because of the observed teachers’ misconceptions, inability to link various
environmental concepts or to contextualize examples and questions they ask. Therefore there should be
well planned environmental education for both pre-service and in-service teachers specifically
synchronized with the secondary school curriculum. This should go together with more comprehensive
geography syllabus and teachers guide. |
