Although a large number of different organisations offer various forest education programmes within Germany, specific information (i.e., sectoral and programme content and provision at a state level) is lacking. This study used a survey of all 61 forest education organisations (43 respondents) in the state of North Rhine‐Westphalia, Germany, to evaluate its forest education sector, with a specific focus on the organisations, demand for its services, forest educational programmes and framework conditions. Input from expert interviews was also used to develop recommendations. The study indicates that, especially with children as the main target group, many non‐formal programmes are offered to support the formal environmental education sector and to promote leisure activities in the forest. Yet, despite a high demand for forest education, low personnel resources restrict the number of visits and activities, principally owing to limited financial resource. We also discuss the provision of innovative new educational programmes and supplementary services, combined with increased quality management, that could be beneficial to the future development of the sector in NRW.  相似文献   

Video diaries: a tool to investigate sustainability-related learning in threshold spaces     

Jane Roberts 《Environmental Education Research》2011,17(5):675-688

This paper takes as a case study an undergraduate field class from a UK university to rural Uganda. It describes and evaluates the use of video diaries as a tool for investigating the process of transformative learning in the context of education for sustainability. The applicability of threshold concept theory to this learning is investigated. Results show the video diary technique to be much more successful in capturing the development of student learning than written diaries. Despite some practical difficulties, rich data were generated. Analysis demonstrated that learning met three of the five criteria for threshold concepts: the learning was transformative, integrative and troublesome. Further research could test whether the learning in this case study met the threshold concept criterion of irreversibility. Further elaboration of the theoretical relationship between threshold concepts, transformative learning and education for sustainability is also needed. It is concluded that the video diary method is potentially transferable to other educational research contexts and may be particularly suitable for researching learning in threshold spaces.  相似文献

中美数学思维观的比较研究     

杜英芳 《天津师范大学学报(基础教育版)》2011,12(1):59-61

中美两国数学教育界对学生数学思维的发展都非常重视。我国学者从形象思维、抽象思维、直觉思维等角度对之进行研究和探索;美国学者从儿童生活实际出发,认为学生数学思维包括：匹配与区分、分类、排序、顺序、建模。在论述思维发展时,都结合学生的实际,以案例的方式进行描述。两国在研究的逻辑方法上存在显著差异。我国研究体现出从一般到特殊的特点,而美国的研究则体现出从特殊到一般的特点。比较两国的研究,吸取各自所长,有利于促进我国基础教育数学课程改革的健康发展。  相似文献
