This volume discusses theory, philosophy, praxis and methods in
Environmental and Ecological education, and considers the junction
with the main visions and issues of Critical Pedagogy. The volume
and its separate chapters address four axes, which can also be seen
as the guidelines of the content as well as the central objectives
of the book. The first axis concerns the missing theoretical and
practical pieces at this point in time. The volume considers the
issues that are not included in contemporary Environmental
Education, and thus, deprive it from critical orientations. This
implies that in Environmental Education, very little discussion
exists about the political, economic, racial, gender and class
issues that in most cases govern the actions of leaders and
stake-holders. The second axis concerns what has been done so far
and in what directions. This involves descriptions of theoretical
approaches or actual applied methodologies in the classroom, such
as curricula or syllabus used or the kind of actions certain
educators have taken to infuse the issues of justice and critical
reflection within the Environmental Education teaching agenda. The
third axis examines proposals. It looks at ways to enrich domains
of Environmental Education with the argumentations of Critical
Pedagogy. The fourth axis concerns the way in which proposals can
be effectuated. This part contains specific methodologies and
teaching sequences, depicting ways of including major aspects of
Critical Pedagogy and Critical Education in Environmental
Education. Examples are: Non-anthropocentric ecological approaches
in the classroom, political activism in the Curricula, mixture of
field activities and political activities.
