Abstract

Since the First National Environmental Protection Conference was held in 1973, environmental education in China has developed rapidly, and Shenzhen is one of the fastest growing areas. This paper takes Shenzhen as an example to study the frontier of environmental education practice in China. This paper summarizes the characteristics and trends of environmental education development in Shenzhen in the past 20 years. It is found that the construction of environmental education system in Shenzhen is mainly carried out by education place, school curriculum and educational activity. In terms of education place, Shenzhen has established an education place system with green schools as the core and environmental education bases and natural schools as the auxiliary. In terms of school curriculum, Shenzhen’s teaching model is mainly based on permeate curriculum, supplemented by isolate curriculum. In terms of educational activity, the primary school stage is rich in activities. Although activities have decreased at the middle school stage, the depth of knowledge taught has increased.
