Formation of "Green Thinking" Through Digital Education Ecosystems Among the Youth of the Zoomer, Zeta, and Alpha Generations
Abstract
The article examines the possibilities and prospects for the formation of green thinking among the youth of the Zoomers, Zeta and Alpha generations through digital educational ecosystems. The analysis of theoretical and methodological foundations, including philosophical, pedagogical and behavioral aspects of the concept of "green thinking", as well as the structure and functions of digital ecosystems of education (adaptive platforms, simulations of sustainable development, AR/VR technologies, gamification and personalized content) is carried out. Based on statistical data for 2011-2024. A regional analysis of the number of students in the Kyrgyz Republic has been performed, and differences related to the level of digital infrastructure have been identified. The hypothesis is confirmed that the purposeful integration of environmental values and interactive digital formats into the educational environment contributes to a sustainable change in the behavioral strategies of young people. Practical recommendations for universities, teachers, students and EdTech developers on the implementation of ESG principles in educational platforms are formulated.
