International Handbook of Research on Environmental Education
Author: Robert B. StevensonPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136699309
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 578
Book Description
The environment and contested notions of sustainability are increasingly topics of public interest, political debate, and legislation across the world. Environmental education journals now publish research from a wide variety of methodological traditions that show linkages between the environment, health, development, and education. The growth in scholarship makes this an opportune time to review and synthesize the knowledge base of the environmental education (EE) field. The purpose of this 51-chapter handbook is not only to illuminate the most important concepts, findings and theories that have been developed by EE research, but also to critically examine the historical progression of the field, its current debates and controversies, what is still missing from the EE research agenda, and where that agenda might be headed. Published for the American Educational Research Association (AERA).

Author: Visual Displays in Qualitative and Mixed Method Research
Author: Elizabeth G. CreamerPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040087280
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
This boundary-spanning textbook explores diverse ways that visual display can advance understanding of complex social phenomenon in applied fields in the social and human sciences. It provides a window into the latest advances in mixed methods research (MMR) by investigating how integrative tables and figures have been creatively adapted in diverse contemporary contexts where qualitative methods are prominent. The book affirms that the usefulness of visual displays is not restricted to reporting; it extends to helping investigators conceptualize a research problem, embed quality in research design during planning, advance multi-dimensional sampling, to extend analysis, and as a tool to highlight integration during reporting. Chapters feature examples that demonstrate how different shapes and textual devices that are available through basic word processing software can help an investigator to think more complexly about the multi-dimensionality or temporality of a construct, process, or phenomenon. Tailored for emerging scholars, this comprehensive resource book will prove useful in seminars and workshops designed to assist students in writing a research proposal. It is it is an invaluable textbook for a new generation of hybrid research methods courses that combine qualitative and mixed methods in the social sciences, education, and healthcare.

Author: Decolonizing Place in Early Childhood Education
Author: Fikile NxumaloPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429764111
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
This book draws attention to the urgent need for early childhood education to critically encounter and pedagogically respond to the entanglements of environmentally damaged places, anti-blackness, and settler colonial legacies. Drawing from the author’s multi-year participatory action research with educators and children in suburban settings, the book highlights Indigenous presences and land relations within ongoing settler colonialism as necessary, yet often ignored, aspects of environmental education. Chapters discuss topics such as: geotheorizing in a capitalist society, absences of Black place relations, and unsettling unquestioned Western assumptions about nature education. Rather than offer prescriptive solutions, this book works to broaden possibilities and bolster the conversation among teachers and scholars concerned with early years environmental education.
The Media, Animal Conservation and Environmental Education
Author: John BlewittPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317967186
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Natural History filmmaking has a long history but the generic boundaries between it and environmental and conservation filmmaking are blurred. Nature, environment and animal imagery has been a mainstay of television, campaigning organisations and conservation bodies from Greenpeace to the Sierra Club, with vibrant images being used effectively on posters, leaflets and postcards, and in coffee table books, media releases, short films and viral emails to educate and inform the general public. However, critics suggest that wildlife film and photography frequently convey a false image of the state of the world’s flora and fauna. The environmental educator David Orr once remarked that all education is environmental education, and it is possible to see all image-based communication in the same way. The Media, Animal Conservation and Environmental Education has contributions from filmmakers, photographers, researchers and academics from across the globe. It explores the various ways in which film, television and video are, and can be, used by conservationists and educators to encourage both a greater awareness of environmental and conservation issues, and practical action designed to help endangered species. This book is based on a special issue of the journal Environmental Education Research.
