Climate change is practically everywhere in the world, and education should pay particular attention to the issue since the challenges that climate change poses to the society, technology, and environments are predicted to be monumental. Climate change is no longer a subject discussed solely by scientists because of the complex web of “causes and impacts” of altered climate system. Education is believed to be one of the key ingredients for the better solutions that would work for long term goals. However, educating future generations about climate change issues, especially in higher teaching institutions where leaders of coming years grow has a long path to follow to synthesize different fragments of climate sciences that are taught by multiple yet disconnected disciplines spanning Environmental Sciences, Physics, Engineering, Economics and Political Science. One promising way to address the complex nature of issues in the climate change is through science, technology, society, and environment (STSE) education. STSE education is an umbrella term, bridging a vast array of different types of theorizing about the interface between science and the social world. To achieve the teaching goals, curriculums and pedagogies of STSE education should be much more than infusion or the reference to science and technology and its application to society and environment. Drawing on existing literature in the STSE education, this research presents an overview of examples of STSE pedagogies and curriculum structures applicable to the subject, followed by a realization of STSE education practice for a university level climatology course.
