Abstract
Abstract The current environmental crisis has mainly a human-induced origin. In this regard, technical and vocational (T&V) graduates have an important role in the optimal use of environment and resources. Therefore, this research intends to find the best teaching method of education for sustainable development (ESD) in order to improve the behavior of those graduates toward the environment. For this purpose, the fuzzy entropy method was used to introduce and weight the sustainable development competency criteria of the T&V graduates. Then, the teaching methods were prioritized by applying a fuzzy Simple Additive Weighted (SAW) model. According to the results of the present paper, performance-based learning was the most appropriate method of ESD.
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.
