    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2023) Farida, Farida; Alamsyah, Yosep Aspat; Suherman, Suherman
    Digital literacy and environmental literacy are required skills at all educational levels and represent a crucial element for success in 21st century skills, especially mathematical reasoning ability. However, it is not a practical choice for educational contexts to lack simple assessment tools. The purpose of this project is to investigate the possibilities of assessing environmental literacy, digital literacy, and mathematical thinking skill, and to contribute to educational practices. Additionally, the relationship between environmental literacy, digital literacy, and mathematical thinking skill is explored. The sample of this study were all grade 7th – 9th secondary school students (N = 216). A questionnaire measuring environmental literacy and digital literacy as well as a test of mathematical thinking skills were used to collect data. Data were analyzed using JASP software, SPSS 26, Winstep, and Mplus8. Our evaluation proved to be a reliable and valid assessment. Digital literacy and environmental literacy can predict mathematical thinking skill. Concerning this topic in the twenty-first century, the meaning of this study is hugely important for educators and education researchers.

    Leer el mundo con letras ambientales : un quehacer cívico y pedagógico en la formación del profesorado
    (Universidad de Zaragoza, Asociación Universitaria de Formación del Profesorado (AUFOP), 2017) Caride, José Antonio
    Darse a la lectura del mundo con letras ambientales, más allá de situarnos ante una metáfora que sugiere nuevas oportunidades para la alfabetización lecto-escritora, desvela un deseo inequívoco: abrir el conocimiento a la vida en toda su diversidad. Un modo, entre otros, de alentar enseñanzas y aprendizajes sensibles a los valores que precisamos para construir una ciudadanía socio-ambientalmente comprometida con los derechos humanos y ecológicos, en las realidades próximas y en las que tienen un alcance planetario. Siendo una tarea desafiante, de amplios recorridos cívicos y pedagógicos, el profesorado –desde su formación hasta su desempeño profesional– debe asumir un protagonismo clave en la re-creación permanente de la lectura y escritura de los textos en sus contextos.
