The purpose of this design based research study was to better understand and build from students’ perceptual experiences of visual representations of the greenhouse effect. Twenty undergraduate students were interviewed as they engaged with an online visualization for the learning of the greenhouse effect. We found that, even though all students agreed that climate change is happening, a majority initially held a misconception about how it works. Upon engaging with the visualization, students made perceptual inferences and formulated causal rules that culminated in an improved description of how climate change works. This trajectory was supported with prompts from the interviewer to make predictions, observe specific interactions in the visualization and revise their causal inferences based on these observations. A case study is presented to illustrate a typical learning trajectory.

This paper is intended to explore the Climate Change (CC) perception in Lebanon. An exploratory study based on individual interviews is conducted. The results of in this study reveal that only a small percentage of citizens have high level of CC perception and intentions to reducing carbon lifestyle. The results demonstrate that the CC is a marketing-communication problem that generates individual barriers to decarbonisation. These findings imply new marketing-communication recommendations.
