Research shows that the consequences of climate change are now frequently addressed in school lessons, but often without addressing students' pre-scientific, fragmentary ideas about the complex processes in the climate system. However, this would be a prerequisite for a real understanding of mitigation and adaptation measures.

However, individual school subjects can hardly achieve this by repeatedly activating knowledge and experiences, placing loose fragments of knowledge in a larger context and slowly developing professionally viable cores into more scientific ideas about the complex, multidisciplinary processes of climate change. The doctoral project therefore investigates the potential of using systematically networked extracurricular learning opportunities for the sustainable restructuring of mental pre-concepts and for the systemic understanding of climate change by generating hypotheses.
