Seeing the Forest, Not the Trees – Crowdsourced Data Collection Methods for Sector-Wide Research
Research that involves a large and broad sample of museums can produce a representative picture of the entire museum sector and lead to global insights that may not be attainable through a more local lens. However, many museum research projects use a small sample of museums, meant to represent the entire field. We propose a research method that distributes data collection across a broad swath of museums to provide local detail that can be used to…
Multi-Site Case Studies About Zoo and Aquarium Visitors’ Perceptions of the STEM Learning Ecology
Informal learning institutions like zoos, aquariums, science centers, and botanic gardens are popular among the American public. Many offer science-related activities, suggesting an “ecology” of sites varying in degree with regards to science and STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) learning in general. Understanding public perceptions of the STEM learning ecology can inform decisions about increasing STEM literacy in the United States. …
The Environment as a Pathway to Science Learning for K–12 Learners—A Case Study of the E-STEM Movement
Recent trends in the environmental education field have recognized the value of using the environment as a pathway for STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) learning, or E→STEM. Research has highlighted that nature-focused outdoor lessons can support students' science knowledge development, yet little is known about the mechanisms through which learning occurs. Moreover, a focus on content knowledge limits understanding of students' d…
Estimating scale, diversity, and professional training of environmental educators in the U.S
After decades of growth in environmental education (EE) in the US, the number of practitioners in the field remains unknown. A national study was conducted to estimate the field’s size through an online consumer survey panel stratified by race, ethnicity, and geographic region representing the US adult population. In addition to demographic data, three categorical questions assessed self-perceptions as environmental educators, the paid/unpaid nat…
Practitioners’ perspectives on the purpose of environmental education
Since the 1980s, scholars have suggested that environmental education (EE) has a 'definitional problem' represented by a multiplicity of perspectives that have critically impacted its discourse, practices, and outcomes. This study sought to investigate how North American EE practitioners from backgrounds ranging from formal and non-formal institutions think about their work. We focused on folk narratives and emerging urban environmental concerns …
Sustaining the Conservationist
Environmental work is emotionally laden because of the struggle on behalf of ethical positions and the daily experience of loss and frustration. Such ongoing stressful experiences may be understood better within a trauma-based framework that acknowledges their implications, similar to clinical diagnosis and treatment of acute stress disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder. This paper reports on two studies of the emotional experience of enviro…
