This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student-scientist-teacher interactions provide students with several advantages. They provide opportunities to interact with experts and professionals in the field, give students a chance at meeting a role model that may impact students' career choices, and increase awareness of available career options combined with an understanding of how their skills and interests affect their career decisions. Additionally, it enhances attitudes and interest toward STEM professions for students and grants opportunities to connect with scientists as human beings and see them as "real people," replacing stereotypical perceptions of scientists. Moreover, there are many advantages for the teacher or informal educator when these partnerships are established. For these reasons and more, numerous studies are often conducted involving the partnerships of students, scientists, and teachers. Enhancing Learning Opportunities Through Student, Scientist, and Teacher Partnerships organizes a collection of research on student-scientist-teacher partnerships and presents the models, benefits, implementation, and learning outcomes of these interactions. This book presents a variety of different scientist-student-teacher partnerships with research data to support different learning outcomes in settings like schools, after-school programs, museums, science centers, zoos, aquariums, children's museums, space centers, nature centers, and more. This book is ideal for in-service and preservice teachers, administrators, teacher educators, practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students interested in research on beneficial student-scientist-teacher partnerships/models in formal and informal settings.

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 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continually identified as one of the key agents of change, teachers play an important part in promoting and improving the capacity of individuals to address environmental and development issues and problems. The preparation of pre-service teachers is especially critical in achieving environmental and ethical awareness, as well as in developing the values, attitudes, skills and behaviours conducive to a sustainable future. However, despite being recognized as a major priority for research and action in many major international conferences on environmental education, environmental education research in pre-service programs has been given little attention in Canada. The only systematic national evaluation of environmental education at the teacher preparation level in Canada was conducted by John Towler (1980-81), nearly 20 years ago. Since Towler's (1980-81) survey, there have been few investigations examining the status of environmental education in Canadian pre-service teacher preparation programs. Towler surveyed pre-service teacher education programs across Canada and reported that many of the respondents at that time did not indicate a high level of commitment to implementing environmental education in teacher programs, despite the call for increased environmental education at all levels of education. This present study was an attempt to assess the status of environmental education at the teacher preparation level since Towler's study. A national survey using a modified version of Towler's questionnaire was distributed to all pre-service teacher training institutions across the Canadian provinces to determine the present level of environmental education which pre-service teachers receive in teacher preparation programs. In addition, two case studies examining the design, content, and methods of two pre-service teacher education courses with specialization in environmental education were conducted to understand and describe the nature of environmental education currently found in pre-service teaching programs.
