At CEEE, our education research team focuses on understanding learning related to the environmental sciences. With our work, we further the understanding of how people of all ages learn, using theoretical frameworks to investigate effective pedagogy and understanding how learners’ experiences influence their perspectives. For example, our education research can help understand:
- The impacts of programs and curricula on learners’ environmental science interest and identity;
- Effective methods for engaging students in environmental science (e.g., place-based; integrating art and science);
- Effective formal and informal learning environments, and understanding the broader learning ecosystem;
- Outcomes in STEM career preparation and workforce development;
- The impacts of efforts to broaden participation in environmental sciences.
