This volume focuses on the fourth Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), education, to look at sustainability from various angles with the purpose of challenging preconceptions about what sustainable education might entail and how it should be conducted. To this end, the book assembles scholars from various research fields and disciplines, who are willing to be at the cutting edge regarding sustainability and education on all levels with students in the ages of 6-15. Through this approach, the text points towards a “wild pedagogy” in line with post-sustainable thinking. This involves agency and the role of nature itself as a co-educator, and promotes cultural changes, and explorative processes of finding “the wild” – the unknown, and complexity in nature – and thus of challenging the human need for control. This approach is also, in line with the 2030 Agenda, an attempt to move from advocating predetermined behavioural change to embracing a pluralistic perspective on sustainability, based on holistic views on education. Such views include curiosity, wonderment, compassion and agency as guiding lights. The book is structured into three sections, based on three interrelated strands. These strands are, in various ways, dependent on one another and further engaged with bringing education theory and practice together. These strands are 1) Belonging and sensing, 2) Critical thinking, social justice and action competence, and 3) Creating hope in a vanishing world. These strands aim to increase our access to and understanding of the ways in which sustainability can be integrated into education and why. The purpose of the text is to encourage educators of all kinds and levels, as well as scholars in different fields, to explore new perspectives on education for sustainable development. The book examines probes in diverse academic fields and focuses on how to combine different approaches and content, and therefore everyone interested in interdisciplinary and cross-curricular teaching and learning should find this work enlightening.

Resilience thinking challenges us to reconsider the meaning of sustainability in a world that must constantly adapt in the face of gradual and at times catastrophic change. This volume further asks environmental education and resource management scholars to consider the relationship of environmental learning and behaviours to attributes of resilient social-ecological systems - attributes such as ecosystem services, innovative governance structures, biological and cultural diversity, and social capital. Similar to current approaches to environmental education and education for sustainable development, resilience scholarship integrates social and ecological perspectives. The authors of Resilience in social-ecological systems: the role of learning and education present a wealth of perspectives, integrating theory with reviews of empirical studies in natural resource management, and in youth, adult, and higher education. The authors explore the role of education and learning in helping social-ecological systems as they respond to change, through adaptation and transformation. This book also serves to integrate a growing literature on resilience and social learning in natural resources management, with research in environmental education and education for sustainable development. This book was originally published as a special issue of Environmental Education Research.

This book focuses on the representation of nature in science education in schools in the United States. Given the importance of our relationship with the nonhuman world for the fate of our planet, this work gives special attention to the representation, instruction, and understanding of the relationship between the social and the natural world. It also proposes an alternative, sustainability science-based conceptual framework for ecology and environmental science topics in science education, which is compatible with the current social-ecological understanding of life in the Anthropocene epoch.

"This study explored ways in which the development and implementation of an online professional development experience for secondary science teachers might shift teacher perspectives, understandings, and practices surrounding the integration of socio-ecological justice learning (SEJL) into their classrooms, courses, and curricula. This Participatory Action Research study included a pre-survey of seventy-one teachers. Results informed the design and development of an online PD series in which six teachers participated. The PD series provided these teachers with tools, resources, and spaces for authentic dialogue in order to create equitable science curricula designed to give students culturally relevant science learning experiences. Three themes emerged from the analysis of this PD experience- (1) recognizing our own biases and perspectives as science teachers in order to teach more intentionally for social justice; (2) making science learning relevant and engaging for students by teaching science in ways that connect in to students’ lives and communities; and (3) continuing the PD journey. Continued research is needed exploring ways in which secondary science educators can be supported."--leaf ii

"The worldview of separation has been identified as a significant contributor to current complex and converging social, ecological, and economic issues. In response, the field of sustainability education emerged as a means of cultivating changes in worldviews toward holistic and interconnected ways of knowing and being. This research study aimed to develop strategies for educational program designs that move beyond sustainability through place-informed regenerative education. The framework that surfaced from this study is referred to as the Regenerative Socio-ecological Systems Framework. This approach revealed the needs and opportunities within various scales of Durango, Colorado's socio-ecological system that could inform a regenerative education program design. Data for the study were collected from program designers, bioregional observations, key informant focus groups, and young adult interviews. Eight multiscale themes emerged from the data which aligned with eight regenerative development and design principles. Findings from the research study are presented as a set of recommendations for a regenerative education program specific to Durango, Colorado for young adults. Suggestions for future research include adapting the Regenerative Socio-ecological Systems Framework to a wide range of socio-ecological studies, various types of data collection, and the implementation of different regenerative projects. Further research recommendations also include extending the Regenerative Socio-ecological Systems Framework using regenerative systems indicators, as well as incorporating aspects of network mapping and network weaving into regenerative development and design socio-ecological research."--leaf vi.

Social Ecology and Education addresses "ecological understanding" as a transformative educational issue: a learning response to emerging insights into social-ecological relationships and the future of life on our planet. In the face of the existential threats posed by climate change, loss of biodiversity, pandemids and the associated ecological and social challenges; there is a need to extend our responses beyond scientific inquiry and technological initiatives. This book seeks to move the dialogue towards a deeper and broader understanding of the complexities of the issues involved. To achieve this, the book discusses issues rarely addressed through programs in "Education for Sustainability" and "Environmental Education," such as student defined knowledge systems, deep engagement with the implications of indigenous understandings, climate change as symptomatic of broad epistemological problems, social disengagement and differentiated barriers to meaningful change. This work is enriched by its focus on the learning and the learning systems that have led to our current predicament. This book seeks to initiate considerations of this kind, to invigorate education for sustainable, equitable, healthy and meaningful futures. As such, this book will be of great interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students in a range of education and environmental courses.
