This paper aims to (re)consider environmental education (EE) through the lens of a mystery/knowledge continuum. It revisits the currents of EE identified by Lucie Sauvé and juxtaposes these with a typology of the senses of mystery. Philosophically and theoretically informed, the paper concludes that a "naturalist current" of EE optimally…

This article has both theoretical and practical purposes. It starts with a project-orientated and axiological identification between education for sustainable development and global citizenship education. It then recalls the importance of the sense of responsibility in constructing identity and knowledge. To best construct a sense of…

This paper develops the concept of "aesthetic knowing," its significance in perceiving and participating in ecologies writ large, and challenges that arise in engaging it during a time of ecological crises. I define aesthetic knowing as "perception of the quality of relationship," and suggest it offers insight into how…

Although in the past, Music and Ecology have been deeply intertwined; nowadays, they do not usually cross pathways. In the process, great opportunities for their integration in educational settings have been lost, and, thus, their potential for promoting natural, cultural, and social values. This research represents a meeting place between…

The tourism industry is one of Thailand's significant sources of income, especially in the northern part of the country, which is rich in art and nature. While tourism contributes significantly to economic growth, it also poses numerous environmental challenges. Therefore, this research had two main objectives: (1) to assess the potential of…

In this article, the author distinguishes between understanding and knowing climate change, the former referring to how students can learn about the functioning of the global climate system and the latter referring to how students can metabolize that information in their own terms. The article introduces key concepts for teaching climate science…

Demonstrated though the illustration of uneven distribution of benefits, disproportionate representation of diverse populations, and the perpetuation of negative perceptions and biases, the fields of outdoor and environmental education have fallen short in providing inclusive and equitable experiences. Though efforts to address discrepancies can…

Wetlands ecosystems play an important role and are relevant to biotic and abiotic factors including survival of humans. Therefore, it is imperative that learners in Lesotho become sensitized to the knowledge about the ecology of wetland ecosystems. Few studies investigated Lesotho students' ecological literacy of wetlands hence this study explored…

No scientific concept in the twenty-first century has garnered more attention from scholars outside the scientific community than the Anthropocene. Despite the official rejection by the geological community in March 2024 of the proposal for an Anthropocene Epoch as a formal unit of the Geological Time Scale, it is expected to remain an invaluable…

The current environmental situation is in a state of crisis, marked by the phenomenon of global warming, which reveals a worsening scenario that is gradually encroaching closer to us. There is a pressing need for global collaboration to address these issues through environmental education and to ensure long-term sustainability. Environmental…

Climate change is an urgent global environmental crisis that requires widespread action and an educated, motivated citizenry. This study explored the impacts of a Climate Superheroes STEAM camp on preschool children's ideas about climate-friendly actions. The research employed a mixed methods experimental design approach including a quantitative…

This paper explores teachers' conceptions of climate change knowledge, contributing to the growing body of work on the geographies of climate change. The paper focuses on the data generated through in-depth semi-structured interviews with a sample of 48 teachers in India to address the research question: What discourses about climate change…

This research investigated the role of environmental education (EE) in acquiring environmental knowledge, pro-environmental beliefs and pro-environmental behaviours among a sample of pre-service teachers who undertook an EE course (n = 177) and those who did not undertake an EE course (n = 203) in a Nigerian university. Results showed that…

Environmental components, including soil, water, air, and biodiversity, are vital for maintaining the balance of the ecosystem. However, environmental pollution is one of the most significant threats to these balances. With environmental pollution, the balance of ecosystems is disrupted, and the food chain is negatively affected. The food chain,…

The aim of the study is to reveal the relationships between prospective teachers' awareness of reducing ecological footprint, their sustainable consumption behaviours and their behaviours towards sustainable environmental education by using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). In the study, a cross-sectional survey model was adopted, and the…
