Teaching Environmental Literacy

Across Campus and Across the Curriculum
Authors: Heather Reynolds;

Teaching Environmental Literacy

Abstract

As the title indicates, this book advocates teaching environmental education at the university level. Taking it a step further, the editors and chapter contributors recommend requiring not just environmental appreciation courses but also adjustments to general curricula that would incorporate environmental education into all classes. This work provides a justification for adjusting curricula across the board. Contributors suggest content for inclusion and useful strategies for engaging students in learning about the environment as well as in the environment. Most chapters are accompanied by bibliographies, which offer support for this significant adjustment to college education campus wide and nationwide. The authors also discuss current successful programs at universities across the US that could function as models for change elsewhere. This book serves as an excellent, literature-based guide for adapting current curricula to educate college students about their disciplines of interest using the environment as a context. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students and above. - Choice
