Confronting Climate Crises through Education : Reading Our Way Forward Paperback / softback
by Rebecca L. Young
Part of the Ecocritical Theory and Practice series
Paperback / softback
Description
Confronting Climate Crises through Education: Reading Our Way Forward envisions the responsibility of public education to engage a citizenry more prepared to address the challenges of a changing world.
Young advocates a paradigm shift that positions ecopedagogy as the central organizing principle of curriculum and assessment design.
Each chapter outlines ways literature can serve as a cultural lens for examining the complex patterns of contexts behind our most pressing climate concerns, including potential solutions these patterns may illuminate.
A focus on fiction and non-fiction exemplars that can provide such a lens illustrates practical steps educators can take to develop instruction around the immediately relevant environmental crises we are experiencing and to inspire more ecologically conscious, globally-minded problem-solvers prepared to confront them.
