Abstract
Abstract Persons in the field of Environmental Education (EE) often have difficulty identifying and selecting educational programs that have the potential to best maximize needed resources to implement and achieve desired outcomes due, in part, to their lack of expertise in evaluation knowledge and practice. This article presents an approach for using a set of criteria and a process to evaluate the potential of an EE program. For this purpose, the proposed approach uses a combination of two multicriteria decision-making techniques to implement a front-end evaluation of available projects and rank them in order to help instructors select one. The proposed approach has been applied to evaluate the Environmental Education programs in Greece. As a result, we discuss the results and make useful conclusions about the quality of these programs available to the school community in Greece.
期刊介绍：
Applied Artificial Intelligence addresses concerns in applied research and applications of artificial intelligence (AI). The journal also acts as a medium for exchanging ideas and thoughts about impacts of AI research. Articles highlight advances in uses of AI systems for solving tasks in management, industry, engineering, administration, and education; evaluations of existing AI systems and tools, emphasizing comparative studies and user experiences; and the economic, social, and cultural impacts of AI. Papers on key applications, highlighting methods, time schedules, person-months needed, and other relevant material are welcome.
