In this article, the author explores the different research approaches to the issues on "race/power/culture" with those of "action, experience, behaviour" and "technology" in the field of environmental education research. Here, the author suggests that environmental educators and researchers must be careful not to adopt an uncritical "under-representation" approach to such inquiries, saying for instance that because of issues of "race/power/culture" one would expect those affected to have somehow different takes on "action, experience, behaviour" and "technology." However, he further emphasizes on "culturally sensitive research approaches." Such approaches, for example community based participatory research (CBPR) or action research and community problem-solving (AR&CPS), unlike "under-representation" approaches, redefine starting points, blur the line between expert and lay ideas, and offer new perspectives on what "results" are, how they should be interpreted and disseminated, and to whom. In this way, environmental educators and researchers would ferment a much needed paradigm shift in their research culture.
