Ecologizing Education
2024
Overview
Ecologizing Education explores
how we can reenvision education to meet the demands of an unjust
and rapidly changing world. Going beyond \"green\" schooling
programs that aim only to shape behavior, Sean Blenkinsop and
Estella Kuchta advance a pedagogical approach that seeks to
instills eco-conscious and socially just change at the cultural
level. Ecologizing education, as this approach is called, involves
identifying and working to overcome anti-ecological features of
contemporary education. This approach, called ecologizing
education, aims to develop a classroom culture in sync with the
more-than-human world where diversity and interdependency are
intrinsic.
Blenkinsop and Kuchta illustrate this educational paradigm shift
through the real-world stories of two public elementary schools
located in British Columbia. They show that this approach to
learning starts with recognizing the environmental and social
injustices that pervade our industrialized societies. By
documenting how ecologizing education helps children create new
relationships with the natural world and move toward mutual
healing, Blenkinsop and Kuchta offer a roadmap for what may be the
most potent chance we have at meaningful change in the face of
myriad climate crises.
Timely, practical, and ultimately inspirational, Ecologizing
Education is vital reading for any parent, caregiver,
environmentalist, or educator looking for wholistic education that
places nature and the environment front and center.
