Abstract
This study examines the potential use of Lake Pamvotis water pollution as a teaching tool in science education. Teachers can develop engaging and informative lessons addressing critical environmental issues by analyzing the water quality data and identifying the pollutants in the lake. This approach allows students to understand the impact of pollution on aquatic ecosystems and encourages them to find solutions to mitigate the pollution effects. Further, using real-world examples such as Lake Pamvotis allows students to apply their scientific knowledge and critical thinking skills to address environmental challenges. The study begins with an introduction that provides an overview of using Lake Pamvotis water pollution in the context of science teaching in education. The introduction follows a literature review describing relevant research and related studies. Then, it discusses the methodology used in the study. The study concludes with a discussion of the implications of the results and suggestions for further research.
