Abstract

In response to pressing ecological concerns, educational innovations are crucial for instilling environmental awareness and fostering pro-environmental behaviours in future generations. This study explores an innovative pedagogical approach implemented at Fergana State University's Faculty of Foreign Languages, aiming to introduce students to the concept of "Ecological Sustainability". By examining the intersection of environmental discourse with cross-cultural dynamics, the study highlights the role of interactive learning in diverse educational settings, particularly within Uzbekistan. Through project-based learning activities, students engage with the language to shape ecological narratives and cultural perspectives. Preceded by a comprehensive questionnaire assessing students' environmental education, attitudes, and behaviours, the study delves into activities focusing on concepts like 'The Three Rs' and conservation vocabulary. Student presentations on local ecological issues, coupled with outdoor experiential learning, further enrich their understanding and practical application of ecological principles. This problem-based learning initiative evaluates students' engagement and awareness, aiming to gauge the effectiveness of the project in nurturing ecological awareness within language and cultural contexts.
