Chang, Chew-Hung; Hedberg, John G. – International Research in Geographical and Environmental Education, 2007
Environmental identity, or how we orient ourselves to the natural world, leads us to personalise abstract global issues and take action (or not) according to our sense of who we are. For example, are we willing to give up our luxurious cars for more fuel-efficient models even though we know that the earth is warming? In an era where web-based…

Udefuna, Patrick Nnadozie; Akalefu, Chiedo; Asogwa, Chinako – Industry and Higher Education, 2013
The standard of education in Nigeria has been declining, the

Waggoner, Matt – Liberal Education, 2013
The Turing era, defined by British mathematician and computer science pioneer Alan Turing's question about whether or not computers can think, is not over. Philosophers and scientists will continue to haggle over whether thought necessitates intentionality, and whether computation can rise to that level. Meanwhile, another frontier is emerging in…

Penfield, Douglas A. – Educational Research Quarterly, 1991
A total of 1,179 urban inner-city high school students were surveyed about drug and alcohol use. The extent of use and relationships among use and sex, age, and grade were analyzed.

The increasing focus of universities on employability is stimulating debates about the purpose of higher education.

In this paper, we present a third-grade ecology learning environment that integrates two forms of modeling--embodied modeling and agent-based modeling (ABMs)--through the generation of mathematical representations that are common to both forms of modeling. The term "agent" in the context of ABMs indicates individual computational objects…
