In the People’s Republic of China and England, the Government has devoted much attention in recent years to environmental
education. the approaches taken in both countries differ, however. The paper looks at some of the similarities and differences
that exist and the reasons for them. In particular the paper looks at policy issues as well as practical aspects of environmental
education. The idea of Education for Sustainable Development, which is referred to more in England than in China, is critically
examined.

ABSTRACT: We suggest that there is a need for those who seek to explore issues associated with the implementation of citizenship education in England to clarify its specific nature. This can be done, at least in part, through a process of comparison. To that end we review some of the connections and disjunctions between 'character education' and 'citizenship education'. We argue, drawing from US and UK literature but focusing our attention on contexts and issues in England, that there are indeed some broad areas of overlap between these two fields. Citizens should be of 'good' character and the educational initiatives that we consider both emerge from a concern about current trends in society. However, we suggest that the overlaps with citizenship education principally apply when character education is drawn very broadly. When we examine a particular approach to character education that is often US-based, and titled as 'citizenship', we note many contrasts with citizenship education as formulated in the National Curriculum for England. We suggest that citizenship educators in England need to interpret claims about the similarity between these two fields with caution, or meanings that apply to both character education and citizenship education will be distorted. 相似文献

The introduction of the concept of lifelong education in higher education brings numerous problems and requires new solutions. One such problem is how to finance programmes of lifelong education. The following article looks at this problem with reference to the system employed in Yugoslavia. The article is based on a paper presented by Professor Barbara Jel?i? and Professor Bozidar Jel?i? at the 24th Session of the Seminar “University Today” (Dubrovnik, 27 August” 1 September, 1978). 相似文献

The author looks at education debates on the enrollment increases in secondary education in Germany and France around 1900. In Germany, the theory of ‘Bildung’ was deployed against the threat of meritocratic reform, while in France educationists pleaded for a reform in the ‘spirit of the Revolution’. So the idea of modern democratic citizenship was much more explicitly a concept of French than of German reformers. The latter pleaded for ‘natural processes of social selection’ and stood against educational reform. They avoided the overtly political formulations of liberal conflict, which, in contrast, were almost habitual among French reformists. 相似文献

The author describes the development of environmental education at Kharkov University in the USSR. The uniqueness of the main programme in general ecodevelopmental education is that its basic disciplinary affiliation is geography, a deliberate choice made by the university authorities’ which the author amply justifies. In the process of explaining this choice, he presents eight theses with regard to the social demand for ecologists and the ecologization of education and what he believes to be the three principal bases for general environmental education at the university level. 相似文献

Herbert L. Willett Ph.D. 《Religious education (Chicago, Ill.)》2013,108(2):158-164
In the ten years following 9/11 there was unprecedented interest in, and commitment to, religious education in the school curriculum in England. Politicians, academics, and professionals all argued that learning about religion could foster “social cohesion” and even prevent terrorism. Accordingly there were a number of national and international initiatives to develop religious education as a part of intercultural education. With a focus on England, but taking full consideration of landmark transnational collaborations, this article examines developments in policy and professional discourse concerning religious education that occurred after, and sometimes as a direct result of, the events of 9/11. It is argued that this emphasis, often instigated at the behest of politicians, led temporarily to an increased status of the curriculum subject in England, but that this influence may have also led to increased instrumentalism, and with it, associated risk to the subject's intellectual autonomy and integrity. 1 相似文献

The relationship between research and policy and practice in education is a long‐standing issue in many countries. Focusing on the UK Government, which is responsible for education in England, this paper looks at the criticisms of education research that have been made in recent years by government and related non‐departmental public bodies and stakeholders. It then looks in more detail at specific examples of the use that has—and has not—been made of research in developing policy. But rather than produce a balance sheet of pluses and minuses in policy makers' use of evidence, the paper emphasises the realities of the policy making process and the difficulties in establishing consistently and exclusively evidence‐based policy. At the same time, it argues that researchers should beware of allowing their work to be shaped entirely by the Government's call for research that is directly useful to policy by always prioritising applied or practice‐based approaches. The paper concludes by highlighting the need for BERA to promote all types of education research—regardless of its utility for policy makers—and, as part of this, for the education research community to ensure that appropriate quality criteria are available for all approaches. 相似文献

关于教育生态的研究在国外起源于20世纪40年代,真正进行研究并提出“教育生态学”概念是在60年代以后,尤其是以克雷明的教育生态学思想为代表形成了一系列学派。在我国,对教育生态的关注始于80年代,发展很快,并出版了系列论,但对于教育系统的层次生态如高等教育的生态研究尚未形成体系。 相似文献

Until recently teacher education in England has always contained a ‘philosophical’ element – to do with what education is for in the light of human nature. The paper traces its history since 1839, through inspirational approaches – based first on religion and later on psychology – to the critical approach of R S Peters and his colleagues in the 1960s. It then looks at the existential crisis faced by this kind of philosophy of education after changes in education policy in the 1980s; and at ways it has found of overcoming it – at the expense, however, of partially turning away from its earlier raison d’être in teacher education. The paper concludes with a discussion of what would be needed for it to resume its old role. 相似文献

Environmental catastrophes can be avoided and sustainable development can be achieved only if starting from early childhood people are educated to appreciate environmental values, to understand environmental processes, to recognize environmental risks, and to adopt environmentally conscious attitudes, as consumers, as professionals, and as citizens. The development of environmental education in Hungary over the last twenty years has been characterized by the extension of environmental education to an increasing number of university faculties and colleges. A great variety of postgraduate courses in environmental studies have been established. Environmental blocks and special environmental subjects have been integrated into general curricula. The experience gained in postgraduate courses has been applied to undergraduate courses. The principle being followed is that environmental education should be a part of all suitable disciplines at all levels, including the disciplines of the social sciences and of the humanities. Existing shortcomings stem from the highly specialized nature, the inflexibility, and other general aspects of Hungarian higher education and from the failure to pursue positive tendencies. Consequently, environmental studies have not been integrated into all possible disciplines. Except in the cases of course programmes for professional environmentalists, the environmental education offered may not be sufficiently comprehensive. Moreover, it tends to be concentrated in technical and vocational training programmes, while lagging behind in the humanities and the social sciences, except in the case of economics. Hungary must seize the opportunity offered by the PHARE (Po‐logne Hongrie Aide à la Recherche et à l'Edu‐cation)Programme of the European Communities to speed up advances in environmental education.

The author argues that the question of plurality and commonality in Dutch ‘basic education’ is due to recent immigration and growing ethnic diversity. A new education act is in the making and the question rises in which way the demarcation of subjects and subject matter has to reflect the cultural differences on the one hand and the common cultural basis on the other. Meyer looks at contributions to the issue of multicultural pluralism and education: she discusses Hirsch's plea for a universal literate culture and supports Crittenden's attempt to achieve a balance between unity and diversity. She emphasizes the need of some kind of (multi) cultural knowledge in the form of comprehension and perception, not in the form of agreement of opinion. A modern citizen in this sense is qualified by education to cope rationally with cultural plurality. 相似文献

This paper explores Paul Brandwein’s contribution to the concept of conservation education in America. It examines the evolution
of the concept to today’s environmental education. It then identifies some of the weaknesses of current environmental education
and presents ideas on how to move past them to a point where conservation education is integrated into every classroom discipline,
which brings conservation closer to Brandwein’s concept of conservation education to create a sanative environment. The paper
looks at place-based learning as a step in that direction, giving several examples. It concludes with the 24 scientifically
based conservation concepts compiled by the Society for Conservation Biology that can serve as curriculum for the 21st Century
and beyond. 相似文献

There is a predominant opinion that distance education, especially that one on higher education level, has to rely on application of educational technology. On the other hand prospective developments in educational and communications technology may bring the distinction between distance and “non‐distance” education into question. But, there is no doubt that the further development of this form of higher education demands broader co‐operation than at present, especially at international level. In this context, the following article, which was written for “Higher Education in Europe” by Dr. Sam B. Crooks, from the Open University, analyses different aspects of international cooperation in distance education with special reference to the work and outcome of the International Conference on Education of Adults at a Distance. The conference, hosted by the Open University in celebration of its tenth anniversary, was held in Birmingham, England from 18 to 23 November 1979. It was attended by over 200 participants from 51 countries. 相似文献

The argument in this paper is that action and participatory research developed within the context of social and political movements aimed at promoting democratic relationships and institutions represents a methodological strategy for deconstructing and reconstructing the hegemonic perspective of knowledge and knowledge production. After a brief reflection about the place of social transformation in today's social practice, especially in education, the paper looks at selected traditions of action and participatory research from Europe [England (Tavistock), Scandinavia and Germany] and Latin America (Colombia and Brazil). These experiences, whilst attending to particular social conditions, can be seen as attempts to develop knowledge that promotes and strengthens a shared world view that aims at social justice and recognition of differences. 相似文献

There is growing recognition of the significance of learning within debates about sustainable development. Within the field of environmental education research, however, there has been insufficient attention given to questions of learners and learning. In the light of this situation, this paper reports findings from two studies (one in England, the other in Sweden) that focused specifically on learners' experiences of and responses to environmental curricula in secondary school and higher education. Three kinds of learning challenges that can be experienced by students on environmental education courses are outlined and discussed. The main purpose of the paper is to highlight the complexity of the learning experience within environmental education and to draw attention to the need for improved research‐based understandings of environmental learning processes. 相似文献
