International Aspects of Environmental Education. Monographs in Environmental Education and Environmental Studies. Volume III.
Perkins, John H., Ed.; And Others
This document contains four sections which deal with various aspects of international environmental education. Section 1 includes papers that describe environmental education projects and programs in South America, Europe, India, Scotland, the Arab states, and the Sudan. An additional article in this chapter compares the environmental education adoption potential of inservice workshop participants in both developed and developing countries. Section 2 contains papers on methods and perspectives on the evaluation of curriculum. It includes articles dealing with the evaluation of environmental education and curriculum materials, analyses of case studies of international environmental campaigns, a study of preconceptions of the biosphere held by children in several countries, and an examination of a new environmental awareness in science education. Section 3 includes two curricular proposals. One describes an action research approach to environmental problem solving, while the other proposes a method for teaching about international environmental issues at the university level. The final section of the document contains two papers on the environmental problems of international significance. One paper summarizes recent scientific findings on acid rain. The second proposes an educational strategy for addressing the problem of nuclear arms. (TW)
