This volume is comprised of contributions to the 67th Nebraska Symposium on Motivation, which brought together various research disciplines such as psychology, education, health sciences, natural resources, environmental studies to investigate the ways in which nature influences cognition, health, human behavior, and well-being. The symposium is positioned to explore two proposed mechanisms in the most depth: 1) the psycho-evolutionary theory of stress recovery and 2) Attention Restoration Theory. The contributions in the volume represent research guided by both of these posited mechanisms, rigorously examine these theories and processes, and share methodological innovations that can be utilized across programs of research. This volume will be of great interest to researchers on natural environments, practitioners and clinicians working with an environmental lens at the intersection of psychology, social work, education and the health sciences, as well as researchers and students in environmental and conservation psychology.

In The Nature-Study Idea, Liberty Hyde Bailey articulated the essence of a social movement, led by ordinary public-school teachers, that lifted education out of the classroom and placed it into firsthand contact with the natural world. The aim was simple but revolutionary: sympathy with nature to increase the joy of living and foster stewardship of the earth. With this definitive edition, John Linstrom reintroduces The Nature-Study Idea as an environmental classic for our time. It provides historical context through a wealth of related writings, and introductory essays relate Bailey's vision to current work in education and the intersection of climate change and culture. In this period of planetary turmoil, Bailey's ambition to cultivate wonder (in adults as well as children) and lead readers back into the natural world is more important than ever.

Forests have diverse values and functions that produce not only material products, but also non-material services. The health functions provided by forests have been used for a very long time, but they have only been emphasized in many fields of society in recent years. The rapid increase in urbanization and the problems of stress, sedentary occupations, and hazardous urban environmental conditions due to modern life may be factors that place great demand on forests’ health functions. Scientific research has shown that there are various psychological and physiological human health benefits of exposure to forests, parks, and green spaces. This collection of papers highlights up-to-date findings and evidence to reveal the beneficial effects of forests on human and public health. The findings provided here can be implemented in practice and policy using forests and nature for human and public health.

"Einmischen possible!" lautete der Titel des ersten Bandes zur gesellschaftlichen Verantwortung und politischen Beteiligung in der Erlebnispädagogik. Bereits damals wurde sichtbar, dass sich viele Erlebnispädagoginnen und Erlebnispädagogen in Form von Trainings, Weiterbildungen oder eigenem Handeln bei Fragen der Nachhaltigkeit, der Demokratieerziehung oder Politikgestaltung einmischen können (und sollen). Heute, drei Jahre danach, hat sich die weltweite Lage mit ihren gesellschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen, technologischen und ökologischen Herausforderungen in vieler Hinsicht weiter kritisch zugespitzt: so z.B. bei den Folgen des Klimawandels ("Waldbrände", "Dürren", "Flutkatastrophen"), einer sich stabilisierenden, weitgehend ungelösten Migrationsproblematik und nicht zuletzt der Corona-Pandemie, die global bisher über vier Millionen Menschenleben gekostet hat. Vor diesem Hintergrund erscheint das neue Motto "Einmischen necessary!" geradezu geboten, denn es verbindet die Möglichkeit der Einmischung mit einer ganz klaren Forderung: Es ist an der Zeit, JETZT zu handeln! Jede(r) Einzelne von uns, die/der sich erlebnispädagogisch engagiert, kann etwas tun, und durch gemeinsames, solidarisches Handeln lässt sich noch deutlich mehr erreichen. Wie man in effektiver und vielfältiger Weise den Gedanken der Einmischung erlebnispädagogisch aufgreifen und in die Tat umsetzen kann, zeigen in diesem Band 24 Beiträge von 34 Autor*innen. Im ersten Teil des Bandes werden generelle Ansätze erlebnispädagogischer Einmischung dargestellt; der zweite Teil zeigt empirische Evidenz und Erfahrungsberichte der Einmischung auf, während der dritte Teil praxisbezogene Perspektiven dazu eröffnet.

Engager le corps pour enseigner et apprendre : diversité de perspectives est un ouvrage collectif faisant suite à un symposium tenu en avril 2021 au sein du Colloque international en éducation du Centre de recherche interuniversitaire sur la formation et la profession enseignante (CRIFPE). Ce symposium a réuni des praticiennes et praticiens et chercheuses et chercheurs du Québec et de la France, issus de divers champs disciplinaires. L’ouvrage rassemble onze chapitres qui examinent le potentiel de l’engagement corporel pour enseigner et apprendre, dans des contextes diversifiés (écoles alternatives primaires, école primaire/élémentaire, école secondaire, école professionnelle, formation universitaire) et à travers différentes perspectives pédagogiques et disciplines scolaires, en particulier les arts. Cet ouvrage collectif se divise en deux parties. La première dresse un panorama des rapports au corps dans des contextes scolaires variés, tout en en discutant à la lumière des perspectives diverses des autrices et auteurs. Dans la seconde partie, praticiennes et praticiens relatent leurs propres pratiques innovantes en matière d’enseignement-apprentissage faisant la part belle au corps. Ces récits illustrent tout le potentiel que recèle l’engagement corporel à l’école. Cet ouvrage s’adresse à toutes les personnes souhaitant faire plus de place au corps dans le processus d’enseignement-apprentissage en éducation.

The main purpose of this Research Topic is to analyze and identify the main family and contextual variables that are involved in the process of carrying out homework. This will require studying the role played by teachers, students, and families in order to ensure that schoolwork is a useful learning tool. Although the role of the student is, obviously, crucial in homework, research has focused on the cumulative time spent by the student carrying out homework. However, the time spent on homework is not in itself evidence of the student’s involvement nor is time spent indicative of quality time. Indeed, an excess of time can sometimes denote low competence in a field of knowledge, while spending less time on homework could be indicative of high competence. It is more likely that a high dedication of time spent on homework reflects high motivation, or comprehension deficits, rather than commitment to learning or academic motivation. In tandem with the role of the student, teachers, as responsible for prescribing homework assignments for students, also become central players in the process of completing homework assignments. The decisions that teachers make about homework prescriptions, and the amount and type of tasks they set, will determine, to a large extent, the quality of the homework process including the student’s motivation and the student’s level of engagement with homework. Furthermore, the fact that homework is useful, interesting and motivating for students, will depend on how the teacher prescribes those tasks and the connection established with classroom learning. Teacher feedback also acquires particular relevance for this point by helping the students to accurately estimate the quality of their progress and overcome the difficulties they may have encountered in carrying out their homework. Lastly, the effectiveness of teacher feedback depends on its contribution to the student’s educational progress and how that student will perform in the future. In addition to the student who performs the task and the teacher who prescribes and corrects it, we must not lose sight of parents’ role. Although there are discrepancies regarding the role that parents play in relation to homework, it is evident that their implication has important consequences not only on the final result of those tasks but also on the very process of carrying them out. Everything seems to indicate that the family environment and, more specifically, the support and feedback provided by parents is a factor that can determine the involvement of students in school duties. In this way, providing emotional support encouraging children to get involved can contribute positively to improving their motivation and interest in the performance of homework. The objective of this Research Topic is to provide researchers and professionals in psychology and education settings with some of the most recent empirical evidence regarding the homework process, its prescription and correction. Overall, we aim to cease making homework a source of conflict and controversy at the socio-educational level in order to provide useful instruments for improving the quality of student learning.

This book explores why the concept of wild pedagogy is an essential aspect of education in these times; a re-negotiated education that acknowledges the necessity of listening to voices in a more than human world, and (re)learning how to dwell in a place. As the geological epoch inexorably shifts to the Anthropocene, the authors argue that learning to live in and engage with the world is increasingly crucial in such times of uncertainty. The editors and contributors examine what wild pedagogy can truly become, and how it can be relevant across disciplinary boundaries: offering six touchstones as working tools to help educators forge an onward path. This collaborative work will be of interest to students and scholars of wild pedagogies, alternative education and the Anthropocene, and for all those engaged in re-wilding education.
