The aim of the present study is to design a model of environmental ethics curriculum based on social constructivism in the second high school. In this study, inductive content analysis method of inductive type was used. The participants were selected using a targeted sampling method and a theoretical saturation criterion, which selected 15 professors and specialists. In fact, the participants were selected based on their experience in the field of environmental ethics curriculum. A semi-structured individual interview was used to collect data. The data obtained from the interviews were analyzed by open, central and selective coding methods. The results of the analysis of the interviews obtained by experts indicate that the environmental ethics curriculum in the second high school is not sufficiently desirable and has weaknesses. The characteristics of the elements of the environmental ethics curriculum based on social constructivism for purpose, content and strategies of teaching-learning and evaluation were also pointed out, and the pattern of the ecological ethics-based environmental ethics curriculum was designed. The results show that all the elements and components of the educational program interact with each other and there is a relationship between the environmental ethics curriculum and the social constructivism, and the social constructivism is sufficient to increase the capabilities of the environmental ethics curriculum.
