The Education drives the Future of Humanity. The Wishes and Visions of Humankind have to drive the Education. What is the final goal of Education? To bring up a healthy, emotionally mature, wise, knowledgable nourisher of life, who understands and feels the reality, based on ethics, humanism and compassion, as essential characteristics of a human…

What could existentialism -­- an ostensibly eclipsed intellectual movement from a bygone era -­- possibly offer education in today's world of ecological emergency? We suggest looking to the pedagogical possibilities of an eco-existentialism -- most notably the works of Arendt, Camus, Sartre and Buber. The existentialists provide the philosophical…

Awareness-raising efforts regarding the climate crisis in schools have gained momentum in recent years. However, increased awareness of the climate crisis has also led to a rise in eco-anxiety, which threatens the well-being of young people. Therefore, it is becoming important to be sensitive to eco-anxiety in climate crisis awareness education…

This study examined the effects of forest education on the environmental awareness and environmental attitudes of vocational high school students and their self-evaluations toward forest education. The study, in which the mixed research method was adopted, was designed with an explanatory design. Forest education was given within the scope of the…

The aim of this study is to determine the views of candidate science teachers about environmental problems and solutions to these problems. One of the qualitative research designs, phenomenology, was used in the research. Data were collected with a semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher. In the analysis of the research, a…

Although there are differences in identity construction depending on countries and periods, some courses have come to the fore in the education system in each period. In Turkey, the education system in general, and history, geography, citizenship and social studies courses, in particular, have instrumental importance in the construction of…

One of the definitions of biodiversity, which has many definitions, is the differences between living things or the diversity of life forms in the world. According to another definition, biodiversity is a group of wholes formed by genes, species, ecosystems and ecological events in a region. The importance of biodiversity is gradually increasing…

Complex mathematical approaches exist in biological, social, and educational sciences, creating models to understand and explain cognition processes in human brain. Yet, the logged raw data is just an initial learners' behavior footprint in Virtual Learning Environments. Exploratory Data analysis would help to deepen the understanding of cognition…

I discuss how three preservice mathematics teachers' (PSTs') covariational reasoning supported the mathematization of a simple energy balance model (EBM) for global warming, and how such mathematization shaped PSTs' understanding of the link CO2 pollution and global warming. I use Thompson & Carlson's (2017) levels of covariational reasoning…

While interdisciplinary approaches in the STEM subjects are widely advocated there are concerns that disciplinary learning can be compromised, especially in mathematics. The Interdisciplinary Mathematics and Science (IMS) project is a three-year longitudinal study in four Victorian primary schools that has developed a pedagogical approach to…

This study is part of a series of in situ design-based research investigations within a large public university in California, assessing undergraduate science instruction while distance learning. It has become increasingly important to identify sustainable learning alternatives to support online teaching and learning while integrating educational…

The purpose of this research is to explore the views of pupils of primary (6th grade) and secondary education (3rd grade of Gymnasium & 3rd grade of lyceum) of the Ionian Islands, about renewable sources and energy saving. In Greece, significant research has been carried out on renewable sources and energy saving. Their findings showed that…

Complexity Theory (CT) provides a useful framework for understanding Second Language Acquisition (SLA). Using an ecological model, CT studies the dynamic processes of change and emergent outcomes over time, tracing back how trajectories may have been affected by changes in and interactions among multiple variables and subsystems. Language learners…

This manuscript is a published account of the 2019 Distinguished Lecture of the American Association of Agricultural Education (AAAE) Annual Meeting. The theme of this lecture is regenerative agriculture which the author considers to be one of the most important agricultural movements occurring today. The author speaks to fellow Agricultural…

Ecological attitude education in primary school is both important and special. That way fundamental moral values of a young person are formed. Every day increasing ecological problems become much more diverse. It is important to develop a man able to perceive the current ecological situation and able to live in a harmonious interaction with…
