As nations worldwide grapple with the challenges of sustainable development, the role of science education becomes increasingly pivotal. This paper explores the emerging trends in science pedagogy aimed at fostering sustainable national development. Drawing from interdisciplinary perspectives encompassing education, environmental science, and socio-economic development, this study examines innovative approaches and methodologies reshaping science education paradigms. Key trends include the integration of experiential learning, inquiry-based instruction, and the incorporation of real-world problem-solving into curricula. Moreover, the utilization of technology-enhanced learning tools and the promotion of interdisciplinary collaboration are highlighted as critical components in nurturing students' holistic understanding of complex sustainability issues. Additionally, the role of educators as facilitators of critical thinking, creativity, and ethical decision-making is underscored in preparing future generations for active engagement in sustainable development initiatives. Through a synthesis of current literature and case studies, this paper elucidates the transformative potential of these emerging trends in science pedagogy to empower learners as catalysts for sustainable national development.
