The first section begins by outlining how climate anxiety manifests in schools, examining the theoretical underpinnings of climate change education and its psychological impact on students and teachers. The second section presents innovative and practical strategies for mitigating climate anxiety in the classroom, highlighting the importance of cohesive learning environments and cross-curricular approaches. Readers will benefit from the book’s international perspective and its blend of theory and practice, gaining valuable insights into how to address climate anxiety and foster resilience in educational contexts. An international, empirical, and ethnographic evidence-based perspective of climate anxiety in classroom, this book will appeal to scholars, researchers, postgraduate students, and educators with interests in climate change education, sustainability education, policy and administration, mental health, and pedagogy.

Over the past several decades, writers such as Margaret Atwood, Paolo Bacigalupi, Octavia E. Butler, and Kathy Jetn̄il-Kijiner have explored climate change through literature, reflecting current anxieties about humans' impact on the planet. Emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinarity, this volume embraces literature as a means to cultivate students' understanding of the ongoing climate crisis, ethics in times of disaster, and the intrinsic intersectionality of environmental issues. Contributors discuss speculative climate futures, the Anthropocene, postcolonialism, climate anxiety, and the usefulness of storytelling in engaging with catastrophe. The essays offer approaches to teaching interdisciplinary and cross-listed courses, including strategies for team-teaching across disciplines and for building connections between humanities majors and STEM majors. The volume concludes with essays that explore ways to address grief and to contemplate a hopeful future in the face of apocalyptic predictions.

This volume presents new philosophical perspectives on environmental emotions. It explores the motivating nature of emotions such as anger, grief, and hope in relation to the current climate crisis. Many of our emotional responses to the climate crisis take a distressed form like anxiety, despair, or grief. However, these emotions almost always coexist with hope, a drive toward action, or a strengthened sense of relationality and belonging. This book explores the different levels at which these tensions take place. Part I discusses the conceptual and linguistic notions we use to make sense of our ecological predicament. Part II looks at the embedded dimension of our emotions: how we feel about the climate crisis as members of our communities and how our emotions are interconnected with what we do and how we work in and for our communities. Several chapters in this section explicitly discuss hope. Finally, Part III has a phenomenological and existential focus: it explores the nature of the rootedness and how it shapes our emotional experiences during the climate crisis. The Philosophy of Environmental Emotions will appeal to scholars and graduate students working in environmental philosophy, philosophy of emotion, and environmental psychology.

Handbook Of Curriculum Theory Research And Practice written by Peter Pericles Trifonas and has been published by Springer Nature this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2024-02-22 with Education categories.
This Handbook paints a portrait of what the international field of curriculum entails in theory, research and practice. It represents the field accurately and comprehensively by preserving the individual voices of curriculum theorist, researchers and practitioners in relation to the ideas, rules, and principles that have evolved out of the history of curriculum as theory, research and practice dealing with specific and general issues. Due to its approach to both specific and general curriculum issues, the chapters in this volume vary with respect to scope. Some engage the purposes and politics of schooling in general. Others focus on particular topics such as evaluation, the use of instructional objectives, or curriculum integration. They illustrate recurrent themes and historical antecedents and the curricular debates arising from and grounded in epistemological traditions. Furthermore, the issues raised in the handbook cut across a variety of subject areas and levels of educationand how curricular research and practice have developed over time. This includes the epistemological foundations of dominant ideas in the field around theory, research and practice that have led to marginalization based on race, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, age, religion, and ability. The book argues that basic curriculum issues extend well beyond schooling to include the concerns of anyone interested in how people come to acquire the knowledge, skills, and values that they do in relation to subjectivity and experience.

This book pushes the theoretical boundaries of human rights education, engaging with complex questions of climate-related injustices, re-imagining education through a decolonising lens, and problematising the relationship between rights and responsibilities. It presents international studies of HRE in varied contexts (e.g. Uganda, Japan, Ireland) to explore the views and experiences of children who identify as human rights defenders, initial teachers’ understandings of concepts such as teacher agency in conflict-affected settings, and the barriers to children’s political agency. The book also highlights HRE in practice including participatory research with very young children as co-researchers and realising rights through play pedagogies, creative writing approaches and picturebooks. An HRE lens is also brought to bear on emerging subjects such as relationships and sexuality education and well-being. Aimed at educators, researchers and practitioners, and engaging with a range of concepts, contexts and contemporary challenges, this book offers new insights into HRE, particularly in the context of issues relating to children’s rights education and participation.

This Youth Knowledge Book invites the readers – young people, activists, youth workers, educators, researchers and policy makers – to find a way forward to a more sustainable and just society. This publication explores young people’s experiences of the climate crisis and their actions. It comprises seven chapters containing contributions from different authors divided into two parts. The first section explores how young people are engaging in environmental politics, while the second considers how the youth sector could respond to the climate crisis and support young people in their environmental activism across Europe and beyond. The publication also highlights some of the emerging issues related to the climate crisis, such as recognising the unequal impact of climate change on different groups of young people, questions of intergenerational solidarity, links between climate denialism and populism, the rise of eco-anxiety (and other emotions) and, finally, the blurring of the dichotomy between humans and nature.

The humanities have become increasing siloed and distant from science. This book will address the reasons for this and the harm it is doing, and it illustrates ways to bring these endeavours back together that are beneficial to both disciplines. Humanities are the cultural undertakings (art, music, literature, theater, philosophy, etc.) that set us apart from the rest of the animal kingdom. Humanities teach us to think creatively, reason, and analyse complex situations. They offer practical skills crucial in professional settings, like critical thinking, empathy, cross-cultural acceptance, reading and writing skills, and clear communication. The humanities steer us away from xenophobia and toward understanding and empathy. They broaden our mind in ways that are healthy for individuals and society. Recently, colleges of “arts and science” have been diminished. In the US fewer than 80 such programs remain in higher education (out of >4,000 US universities/colleges) with severe cuts of faculty and programs in the humanities. The proportion of undergraduate students studying humanities fell 30% between 2005 and 2020. Elected officials are advocating for elimination of state funding for the humanities. The great divide between humanities and science continues to grow. K-12 STEM and Common Core Standards discourage reading literature, and students arrive at college unprepared, lacking endurance to read long passages or write a proper paragraph. Some question the point of reading at all. Today, few scholars work comfortably across science and humanities. This volume will express the views of some individuals who do so, producing creative works that express the nature of how a blending of these great human pursuits can be accomplished.

Through a postcolonial lens, this book explores the various ways in which francophone writers, visual artists and activists are responding to the global climate and environmental crises threatening the Earth today. The volume covers most of the francosphere: Africa, the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean, South America and Polynesia. As well as discussing a range of environmental issues, from soil erosion to nuclear testing, it also considers ways in which francophone writers have become ecological activists. The ecotexts discussed include graphic novels, visual narratives, and zines alongside more conventional literary texts such as novels, short stories and poetry. The book seeks to decentre Belgium and France in francophone ecocritical scholarship while engaging in current debates in the field of ecocriticism, including the afterlives of Belgian and French colonialism and neo-colonialism in relation to climate change and environmental degradation, Blue Humanities, waste and toxicity studies, critical animal and plant studies, Indigenous peoples and their cultures and knowledges, climate-environmental (in)justice, and writerly/textual activism for climate and environment. It aims to widen the geographical scope of francophone ecocriticism by discussing a wide range of eco-themes that go beyond the segmentation and compartmentalisation found in other books in the field.
