The WaddenSea characterizes the North Sea coast. Also due to various threats it is necessary to teach students about it. Therefore, a school-based environmental education program was developed and implemented with 157 learners. In order to assess the impact of thisintervention on environmental knowledge, a knowledge test was designed and its suitability was empirical tested. The main study shows a significant short-term and long-term change in environmental knowledge by means of a one-factor analysis of variance with repeated measures.
