Book excerpt: Un ouvrage sur l'enseignement du vivant aux enfants. Dès les premières années, les enfants disposent de conceptions biologiques plus ou moins correctes, de théories naïves sur les humains, sur les animaux et sur les plantes, du point de vue des dimensions qui les interpellent comme grandir, se nourrir, être malade ou mourir. Ces théories reposent sur une pensée biologique universelle qui est aussi influencée par le milieu environnant, comme les parents ou encore l’école, mais aussi par les contacts avec la nature, propres à une culture donnée. À la lumière de nombreuses recherches actuelles sur les connaissances enfantines du vivant, des pistes éducatives innovantes sont proposées pour l’enseignement de la biologie. Elles se basent sur un nouveau modèle socio-écologique qui diffère des approches centrées majoritairement sur l’espèce humaine, en prenant en compte l’ensemble des éléments vivants, plantes et animaux, également membres d’un même écosystème. À l’heure où il est urgent de repenser la gestion des équilibres naturels, cet ouvrage est un plaidoyer pour une meilleure prise en compte des équilibres vivants, grâce à l’éducation précoce à une Nouvelle Écologie (ENE). Découvrez ce plaidoyer pour une prise en compte des équilibres vivants au travers de l'éveil à la Nouvelle Ecologie, centrée sur l'ensemble des êtres vivants appartenant à un même écosystème. EXTRAIT Les résultats des études précédentes montrent que, dès 3-4 ans, les enfants sont capables d’identifier les aliments « bons pour la santé ». L’évaluation de ces aliments, de toute évidence renforcée par l’environnement scolaire et peut-être même par les parents, est donc effective dès le plus jeune âge. Mais, quand on observe les conduites alimentaires réelles, on constate qu’elles sont beaucoup plus de l’ordre de la consommation, voire de la surconsommation, d’aliments gras et sucrés. De plus, le marketing cible les goûts des enfants par l’habillage des aliments même si les jeunes enfants français étudiés par Guérin et Thibaut (2008) ne semblent pas tellement touchés par la valorisation marketing. La stigmatisation de la junk food, très en vogue aux États-Unis, présente le risque de ne véhiculer que la dimension « médicamenteuse » des aliments au détriment de la dimension hédonique. Plutôt que de ne cibler que les aliments mauvais, ne serait-il pas plus efficace d’expliquer les vertus, par exemple en termes de vitalité, des aliments « bons » pour la santé ? Si on basait les slogans destinés aux enfants sur les caractéristiques naturelles des aliments, en valorisant la dimension vitaliste plus que diététique, ils prendraient davantage goût aux aliments bénéfiques pour eux, car de même nature, c’est-à-dire « vivants ». Par exemple, pour promouvoir la consommation du miel, afin de diminuer celle de sucre blanc raffiné, ne pourrait-on pas expliquer le cycle naturel des abeilles en rapport avec les fleurs, qui sont toutes deux des organismes vivants ? Pour favoriser la consommation du poisson, ne pourrait-on pas expliquer son cadre de vie, comme celui du saumon qui naît en eaux douces, se reproduit en eau salée et revient mourir dans sa rivière natale ? A PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Enseignante-chercheure en psychologie du développement et des apprentissages, et en sciences de l’éducation, Florence Labrell a mené plusieurs études sur les conceptions biologiques pendant l’enfance. Actuellement professeure des universités à l’INSHEA, elle est également membre du CESP (INSERM U1178, équipe « Développement et affects »).

This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The call for changes in the situation of environmental degradation that characterizes the contemporary world has come from diverse sectors of society, and education has an important role to play. To achieve this goal, educational efforts must contemplate the natural, as well as the cultural aspects of the environment. The theme can be addressed at the different levels of formal teaching, by adopting an interdisciplinary approach that addresses the aesthetic dimension of natural and man-made environments. The purpose of this book is to present the analysis of an intervention, developed in biology classes related to the environmental thematic focusing on ecological knowledge and aesthetic dimension of natural and man-made environments. The author analyses the engagement and participation of high school students and some possibilities and limits for the development of such activities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecological and environmental education in schools and institutes of further and higher education has gained increasing importance in recent years, both as an area of study in its own right, and as a component of other disciplines. There is now a requirement in many countries to include the environment in both formal and informal curricula. This volume presents a long overdue account of the status, progress and underlying concepts of ecological education. It explores areas of recent development and debate in ecological and environmental education, describes the evolution and development of environmental education in different countries and examines the importance and provision for fieldwork. Case studies illustrate how ecological studies are undertaken in several culturally different settings. This book will interest teachers and research workers in ecology, environmental science and education.

This book was released on 2011-12-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A workshop was held in June 1994 at the University of Western Ontario, London, concerned with education and training in global environmental change science. It was principally devoted to post-school education from first year university to postgraduate levels. I have arranged the papers and the results of discussions in the following order: Section 1: Introduction These papers set the scene. It begins with one by Beran whose original idea the workshop was. Schneider outlines various ways in which interdisciplinary courses in general and global change science in particular can be set up. Fyfe looks at the wider issues of global change that affect us all. There are then papers which examine major problems (Leal Filho; and Troost) and programmes to meet them (Carter; Fisher). Harger Section 2: Global Change Science Courses These papers are concerned with courses concerned with various aspects of global change courses. They include contributions from nine countries at different levels of secondary and university education. Section 3: Resources for teaching Global Change Science New resources are needed for effective courses, particularly those in which students can participate actively. There are wide selections both in terms of topics and teaching strategies, most of which are interactive. Section 4: Workshop discussions The workshop participants split themselves amongst three groups, one to discuss early undergraduate courses, another with senior undergraduate courses and the third with postgraduate courses. Their discussions are brought together in this section and common themes are identified.

Download or read book Natural Resources Sustainability and Humanity written by Angela Mendonca and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-04-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly, this book is the written up-graded version of the topics discussed during the Small Meeting of the 2nd International School Congress: Natural Resources, Sustainability and Humanity, held in Braga, Portugal, 5-8 May 2010 with the diverse participation of scientists, educators and governmental representatives. The Earth hosts an immense ecosystem, colonized by millions of species for billions of years but only for a few tens of thousands of years by humans. Environmental history tells though that it was humankind that shaped the environment as no other species. History, geography, religion and politics among other reasons have differentiated populations with respect to access to safe food and water, education, health, and to space and natural resource utilization. The globalization era of trade, information and communication is shortening distances and increasing overall wealth, but, as is pointed out in this book, it is also contributing to the propagation of diseases, and to the modification or even destruction of native ecosystems by exotic invasive species. Man is the only species that has the perception of its history, evolution, of the consequences of its decisions, and that there is a future ahead. It is also the only species that has the potential to change it. This awareness can be a source of anxiety and contradictory behaviours, but it is also the key to changing attitudes towards the construction of a common sustainable home, by committed education, interdisciplinary approaches, mobilization and empowerment of people and political consonant actions.

Download or read book Environmental Education and Advocacy written by Edward A. Johnson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-03-03 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental education has often blurred the distinction between ecological science and environmental advocacy. Growing public awareness of environmental problems and desire for action may be contributing to this blurring. There is a need to clarify the distinction between the role of ecological science and the role of social and political values for the environment within environmental education. This book addresses this need by examining the changing perspectives of ecology in education and the changing perspectives of education in environmental education. Guidelines are provided for assessing the science and education perspectives within environmental education, along with suggested frameworks for development of programs and resources that integrate current science, education and action. This book will be of interest to environmental educators, ecologists interested in environmental education, and curriculum and resource developers.
