Continuing efforts are being made to contribute to sustainable development in the tourism industry, and numerous researchers have emphasized the significance of education. However, the number of studies on sustainable tourism education was extremely limited, and the primary research subjects were limited to university tourism majors. This study examined the dimensions of perception, knowledge, attitude, and behavioral intention for sustainable tourism among tourism-specialized high school students, who can be considered the future leaders of the tourism industry, in order to overcome this limitation. In addition, three types of educational materials, including handouts, card news, and videos, were provided to students using a scenario-based design, and the response results of each group were compared to determine the efficacy of each type of educational material provision. Consequently, education improved the overall level of perception, knowledge, attitude, and behavioral intentions; however, there was no significant relationship between the effectiveness of each group's education and any of the variables measured. This study targeted tourism-specialized high school students, which had never been done before in the context of sustainable tourism education, and the results of this study have both theoretical and practical implications for sustainable tourism education.
