Download or read book The Inclusion of Environmental Education in Science Teacher Education written by Alec Bodzin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-08-13 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the coming decades, the general public will be required ever more often to understand complex environmental issues, evaluate proposed environmental plans, and understand how individual decisions affect the environment at local to global scales. Thus it is of fundamental importance to ensure that higher quality education about these ecological issues raises the environmental literacy of the general public. In order to achieve this, teachers need to be trained as well as classroom practice enhanced. This volume focuses on the integration of environmental education into science teacher education. The book begins by providing readers with foundational knowledge of environmental education as it applies to the discipline of science education. It relates the historical and philosophical underpinnings of EE, as well as current trends in the subject that relate to science teacher education. Later chapters examine the pedagogical practices of environmental education in the context of science teacher education. Case studies of environmental education teaching and learning strategies in science teacher education, and instructional practices in K-12 science classrooms, are included. This book shares knowledge and ideas about environmental education pedagogy and serves as a reliable guide for both science teacher educators and K-12 science educators who wish to insert environmental education into science teacher education. Coverage includes everything from the methods employed in summer camps to the use of podcasting as a pedagogical aid. Studies have shown that schools that do manage to incorporate EE into their teaching programs demonstrate significant growth in student achievement as well as improved student behavior. This text argues that the multidisciplinary nature of environmental education itself requires problem-solving, critical thinking and literacy skills that benefit students’ work right across the curriculum.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A multiple case study investigation examines the relationship between a residential environmental learning center and six schools that attend their program. Pre-experience interviews were conducted with teachers to gain understanding of how they integrate the residential experience with formal classroom instruction. On-site observations of teacher participation during the program provided insight into how they foster student learning during the experience. A student questionnaire was used to reveal students' perceptions of three areas of interest: 1) most meaningful aspects of the experience, 2) most confusing aspects of the experience and 3) topics they would like to know more about. These data inform how pre-experience preparation and activity scheduling influence student perceptions of expected outcomes. Interviews with the residential learning center education staff describe the importance and difficulties associated establishing a working relationship with classroom teachers. Results reveal that the residential learning center school programs offer students an opportunity to experience and learn content that is aligned to the ideal curriculum of environmental education including ecological principles, issue identification, solution formation, civic responsibility and motivation. The residential learning center provides students an opportunity to connect with nature and students identified out-of doors science investigations as the most meaningful aspect of the experience. Teachers underestimated the influence of teaching science outdoors and pre-experience preparation impacts student outcomes. Using grounded theory methodology this research identified eight causal conditions, which act as barriers to engaging teachers in onsite instruction. Four of these conditions are specific to teachers and the remaining four are products of the education staff. Recommendation and implications for teacher professional development are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a large body of research extending across multiple disciplines that indicate how to implement a field trip so it reaches optimal educational potential. Past research shows that more comprehensive preparation and follow-up leads to a better learning experience. This study describes the preparation and follow-up Minnesota teachers conduct with their students before and after an extended field trip to a residential environmental learning center (RELC), how these teachers connect such trips to formal curriculum, and the kind of support and resources RELCs provide teachers to facilitate preparation and follow-up for field trips to their facilities was determined. Results show that there are inconsistencies between the RELCs in terms of the resources they provide to teachers before and after field trips. Teachers welcome preparation and follow-up materials but face similar barriers to integrating field trips into their formal curriculum as those that have been stated in research for over 30 years. In addition, the types of preparation and follow up teachers conduct with their students fall on a wide spectrum, similar to past research findings. This was an initial step towards a greater understanding of how extended field trips to RELCs in Minnesota can be integrated into the formal classroom and what research efforts are needed to support these understandings.

This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed-methods study evaluated the integration of environmental education (EE) into school curricula across 5 public schools in Arizona, USA, from June 2023 to May 2024. The research involved 500 students (grades 6-8), 20 teachers, and 5 administrators. Quantitative analysis revealed significant improvements in students' environmental attitudes and behaviors across all schools (p < 0.001), with large effect sizes (Cohen's d > 2.0). ANOVA showed significant differences in attitudes and behaviors across schools (F(4,495) = 3.87, p = 0.008 for attitudes; F(4,495) = 4.13, p = 0.004 for behaviors) and socio-economic backgrounds (F(2,495) = 4.75, p = 0.002 for attitudes; F(2,495) = 5.12, p = 0.001 for behaviors), but not across genders. Qualitative thematic analysis identified key factors contributing to program success, including student engagement, cultural sensitivity, and inclusivity. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of a comprehensive, adaptable approach to environmental education in enhancing students' environmental consciousness across diverse demographics.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of environmental education is to increase individuals' ecological knowledge, awareness of associated environmental problems, and motivation to evaluate and implement solutions. This project combined the concepts of environmental education with community service learning to create a new method of curriculum integration: environmental community service learning. The California state standards for environmental education, service learning, language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies were integrated into four thematic units using the teaching methodologies of cooperative learning, authentic assessment, and reflection. The integrated, thematic units of this project could be used by educators in a multi-disciplinary, team teaching scenario on in a single classroom setting as either sequential, thematic units of study or independent activities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HauptbeschreibungField trips are a popular method for introducing students to concepts, ideas, and experiences that cannot be provided in a classroom environment. This is particularly true for trans-disciplinary areas of teaching and learning, such as science or environmental education. While field trips are generally viewed by educators as beneficial to teaching and learning, and by students as a cherished alternative to classroom instruction, educational research paints a more complex picture. At a time when school systems demand proof of the educational value of field trips, large gaps ofte.
