Abstract
The present thesis explores the secondary school students’ understanding about the energy footprint (EF) concept and the effort of their active participation in its reduction, through intervention. In the first survey, 416 students of the urban complex of Thessaloniki participated by using a developed questionnaire with images, depicting everyday products or services. Results indicate that students do not apprehend the EF concept. While in the second, a Teaching- Learning Sequence (TLS) was designed and implemented with a duration of twenty 20 hours, in 80 7th grade students, with the aim of changing their perceptions and practices towards sustainable energy use.
