Based on action learning, we propose a new use of digital story telling (DST) in sustainability in management education (SiME). Using thematic analysis (TA), we analyze a set of 63 student generated DST films on the Anthropocene to propose an experiential learning framework based on five key learning domains: the Planetary Boundaries, scale issues…

This article describes literacy practices and outdoor activities in high school English classrooms--framed as critical rambling, a pedagogy seeking to raise awareness of issues like climate justice--with illustrations from a dissertation of teacher research and additional student work.

To improve climate education in an introductory weather and climate course, an active-learning lab was developed around a climate decision support system. The Climate Analysis and Visualization for the Assessment of Species Status (CAnVAS) tool allows individuals to view various climate variables and select a particular location and species to…

Teachers are members of school district organizations that have their own organizational culture and climate. We differentiate a school or district as an organizational cultural context from the broader community cultural context or individual sociocultural background; it stands as an intermediate context with effects that may differ from the…

Science communication is a key skill for undergraduates, but little research explores how biology students communicate about societally important, yet controversial topics like climate change. In this study, we explored whether and how biology students took on the role of science communicators about climate change. We surveyed 191 biology students…

'School of the future' scenarios remain a popular means of animating policy, industry and public debates around issues relating to technological, economic, societal and environmental change. To date, these scenarios rarely involve the perspectives of school students. Purpose of the research: This study explores how scenarios can be used to engage…

This study aims to explore the role of perceived organizational support, proactive personality, and creativity in shaping university students' entrepreneurial intentions. Through a questionnaire survey conducted with 456 undergraduate students from three universities in Guizhou Province, we collected data on students' entrepreneurial intentions…

As educators have begun to investigate new ways to promote student productivity and creativity by 'co-creating' with generative AI (GenAI), scholars have simultaneously warned against attributing creativity to GenAI given potential risks that anthropomorphizing AI could result in undermining the value of human creativity or in encouraging current…

In recent years, wildfires have caused significant disruptions to teaching and learning, including destruction, damage, injuries, and extended school and campus closures. The 2023 National Preparedness Report notes regions across the United States experience more intense and hotter wildfires because of climate change and prolonged drought.…

This paper seeks to explain the astonishing proliferation of diversity-related offices (DROs) in U.S. higher education over the past 50 years. We collected original archival data on the DRO adoption years for a nationally representative sample of 235 U.S. colleges and universities. Using event history models, we tested alternative theories for the…

The causes of dramatic climate change mostly lie in human behavior. Humans cause climate change, for example, by creating waste. Pro-environmental behavior plays a crucial role in fighting climate change by preventing waste and conserving resources. Therefore, schools should foster pro-environmental behavior to fight climate change more…

Collective cultural transformation is needed to save the Earth from the growing effects of the human-caused environmental problems. Music education, too, can take part in preparing future generations with the knowledge and skills needed to address the world's complex challenges and create a more sustainable future. Approaching music education from…

Overwhelming waste is one of the most compelling issues that contemporary environmental and sustainability education (ESE) should address. Understanding waste as an embodiment and offspring of ongoing colonial relations in the Capitalocene, I explore how ESE could perform a string figure with a wasted world by decolonizing more-than-human…

Although shared leadership is typically considered a beneficial leadership approach, findings reporting its effectiveness are mixed. By integrating implicit theory and the "Too-Much-of-a-Good-Thing" (TMGT) effect, this study hypothesizes that both too little and too much shared leadership restrict team creativity and employee creativity.…

Carefully chosen picturebooks offer a developmentally appropriate medium for helping children understand even the most complex challenges. However, it may be difficult for teachers to find high-quality children's books for explaining multifaceted topics such as climate change. This study explores the contents of a set of picturebooks about climate…
