The “CTCC” test (test on Critical Thinking in the context of Climate Change) was presented at the annual GDCP conference 2023 in Hamburg. In total, over 280 students from various universities, including TU Dresden, Ruhr University Bochum, JKU Linz, University of Innsbruck and KU Leuven, took the test. The initial results are satisfying, but also show that the test needs adaptation. The second survey, which will also include upper secondary school students, is already ongoing and will be presented at the next GDCP conference in Bochum.
