Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study explores the development of environmental awareness models by employing narrator-based timeline simulations of significant environmental events. The research emphasizes how immersive narratives, structured according to historical and hypothetical timelines, can improve the individual and collective understanding of environmental challenges. Simulating key moments such as industrialization, environmental disasters, and political advances. This study aimed to investigate the development of environmental awareness models through timeline simulations based on the narratives of environmental events. The methodology integrates storytelling with scientific data to contextualize environmental issues, encouraging emotional engagement and critical reflection. Findings indicate that these simulations promote deeper awareness of sustainability issues, encouraging proactive behaviors and informed decision making. The study contributes to environmental education by highlighting the potential of narrative-based simulations as innovative tools to generate environmental awareness and encourage actions toward ecological resilience.
