Rachael C. Edwards; Brendon M. H. Larson; Susan Clayton – Environmental Education Research, 2024
Awareness of environmental problems such as climate change can motivate action, but educators debate whether to raise students' awareness given that it may provoke eco-anxiety.

Although extant for 20 years, a paucity of studies have utilized this taxonomy,…

Schick, Carol – Race, Ethnicity and Education, 2014
Teaching about the history and culture of aboriginal peoples in schools of white settler societies can serve as a counter to the dominant story that serves as the national narrative.

Lussier-Ley, Chantale; Durand-Bush, Natalie – Research in Dance Education, 2009

Yet, empirically speaking, we know very little about the role of emotions, and more specifically feel, in the creative experiences of dancers. The purpose of this study was to explore the role of feel in the creative experiences of…
