Implementing interdisciplinary sustainability education with the food-energy-water (FEW) nexus
Growth in the green jobs sector has increased demand for college graduates who are prepared to enter the workforce with interdisciplinary sustainability skills. Simultaneously, scholarly calls for interdisciplinary collaboration in the service of addressing the societal challenges of enhancing resilience and sustainability have also increased in recent years. However, developing, executing, and assessing interdisciplinary content and skills at th…
Using value-belief-norm theory to explore visitor responses to education programs at animal-themed facilities
I use value-belief-norm theory to frame how environmental education program participants interpret important messages and set behavioral intentions in response to environmental education program content. I compare participants at three animal-themed environmental organizations with different missions, postulating that institutional mission frames values-based messaging and drives outcomes in these contexts. This paper is the third part of a mixed…
Pandemic shift

Six environmental education (EE) instructors, from public universities across the USA, compiled and analyzed their teaching experiences, carefully consider…
The role of EcoTypes in engagement across difference
Environmental engagement in troubled times

Environmental educators using animal companions can compel individuals to engage in pro-environmental behaviour by promoting environmental values, beliefs, and behavioural norms. This study examines how institutional context and mission influence the framing of these types of messages in live animal interpretive experiences. I compare three animal-themed organizations with different types of animals and missions: a rescue organization, a research…
Identifying the foci of mission statements of the zoo and aquarium community
Zoos and Aquariums are increasingly being called upon to engage in conservation education to advance conservation goals and justify the keeping of captive animals. Further, the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) requires that organizations include both conservation and education in their missions. Our research compared the mission statements of AZA-accredited zoos from 2004 to 2014 to assess how the collective goals of the community have cha…
