The climate crisis threatens the sustainability of global ecosystems. To address climate change education, which has traditionally focused on scientific and technical approaches, one can consider learning from the ecological wisdom of ancient peoples. This qualitative paper explores the ecological wisdom behind the traditional painting of Wayang…

Dutch nature organisations developed the Green Traineeship, combining out-of-the-classroom learning with voluntary work in nature for young adults, with the aim of supporting them to towards future action for nature. To better understand how young adults' engagement with nature can be strengthened and facilitated, we studied perceived knowledge…

Before Heritage Middle School began working with the Participate Learning team to connect lessons to real-world issues, the teachers and leadership had established a goal to encourage students to become more empathic about issues in their community.

Escalating ecological events like global warming haunt our lived experience of place and demand thinking the concept anew in environmental education research. Using Timothy Morton's notions of hyperobjects and dark ecology as a springboard, we articulate the uncanny--the withdrawn, unknowable, excessive and anxiety-provoking--aspects of place that…

The research was conducted to study and develop a Green University using Cloud based Internet of Things model for energy saving. The aims of this study were 1) to study and design 2) to evaluate a model of Green University using Cloud based Internet of Things for energy saving. There are two phases of the research method. The first phase included…

Purpose/Objectives: Food discarded in school meal programs diminishes opportunities to nourish students and intensifies waste management burdens. Whole fruit waste poses problems in elementary school cafeterias in particular. Offering self-serve sliced fruits in bulk may increase the amount consumed and decrease food waste on a school level.
