Natural History Dioramas: History, Construction and Educational Role
Effects of Having Pets at Home on Children's Attitudes toward Popular and Unpopular Animals
Having pets at home provides various social, health, and educational benefits to children. The question of how keeping pets at home affects the attitudes of children toward wild animals still has not been answered, due to various methodological issues, such as ignorance of some attitude dimensions and/or questionnaires that include items focused on very different animals. We conducted three independent research surveys (using three independent sa…
Seeing the natural world: A tension between pupils' diverse conceptions as revealed by their visual representations and monolithic science lessons
In this article, the authors report on drawings of the natural environment produced by a sample of 13–14-year-olds. One of their interests is the extent to which these young people see the world in the way rewarded in science lessons. With rare exceptions, school science generally assumes that for any scientific issue there is a single valid scientific conception so that alternative conceptions are misconceptions. The drawings reveal a plurality …
Environmental Education, Ethics and Citizenship Conference, Held at the Royal Geographical Society (with The Institute of British Geographers), 20 May 1998
The search for a worldwide environmental ethic is linked to the increase in environmental concern since (particularly) the 1960s, and the recognition that environmental problems can have a global impact.

Environmental education, ethics and citizenship conference, held at the royal geographical society (with the institute of British geographers), 20 may 1998: The place of living organisms in children's…
To date, insufficient work has been carried out on how children view living organisms in the environment. In this study a large number of conversations were audio‐taped and transcribed while primary age pupils observed meal worms or brine shrimps (both of which are invertebrates) during science activities. Analysis revealed the ways in which the pupils interpreted what they saw in terms of their prior experience. We discuss the implications of th…
