Education au développement durable : l’oeil expert de Francine Pellaud | Knowtex Blog

Au moment où la Suisse mettait en place un projet qui visait le développement d’une Exposition Nationale, en 1996, Francine Pellaud réfléchissait sur le choix d’un sujet de thèse. « {*style:<i>A cette époque, je travaillais déjà dans un laboratoire de didactique des sciences ( LDES ) sans pour autant être scientifique. » </i>*} se souvient-elle. C’est dans ce labo, via André Giordan qu’elle est initiée aux sciences de l’environnement… pour en faire plus tard un sujet de prédilection. « Ni une ni deux, elle s’inscrit et c’est parti. Depuis toujours, Francine a des idées environnementalistes, plutôt « écolo », mais se sentait souvent gênée avec les militants à cause de la mise en œuvre pratique et concrète de ce type d’idées. Le développement durable (DD) sera pour elle le déclic. Ce concept la fascine car il inclut les trois piliers nécessaires à l’entrée dans un projet de société réaliste : écologie, social et économie.

“ Oh my! This is 'must have' have book for educators and business. This book really does set the bench mark for what is to come in ESD and boy is it optimistic in it's message (that's right, you heard me, OPTIMISTIC!)!...” -a review of the book Sense&Sustainability by an Eco Schools Coordinator in the UK An opportunity to spend a week looking at ESD in depth with leading thinkers and practitioners in the UK.

Higher education has a unique contribution to make towards sustainable development. University researchers were the first to alert the world to global warming, and researchers worldwide are working to help society find social and technical solutions to environmental challenges. Today’s graduates will occupy future management and leadership roles, and will need the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions, taking account of the complex social, economic and environmental issues that exist in the twenty-first century.

Environmental Learning

Clear implications for enhancing environmental learning practice, policy and research Grounded in everyday practice with rich, detailed examples from school and university classrooms Clear focus on learner perspective and experience, i.e. what environmental education looks and feels like for students Environmental education and education for sustainable development have become features of many countries’ formal education systems. To date, however, there have been few attempts to explore what such learning looks and feels like from the perspective of the learners. Based on in-depth empirical studies in school and university classrooms, this book presents rich insights into the complexities and dynamics of students’ environmental learning. The authors show how careful analysis of students’ environmental learning experiences can provide powerful pointers for future practice, policy and research.
