Implementing Education for Sustainable Development in schools
In recent years, in the UK, there has been a significant focus on research in ESD/GCE in initial teacher education and on projects and initiatives used with pupils in schools. However, there has been less specific focus on the 'voices' of teachers who have undertaken such projects: the documentation of their perceptions of effective pedagogy for the development of their pupils' learning, and, importantly, the development of their own concepts and…

The drama lessons link with some of the key aims in ESD, with a particular locus in the Scottish education system. As 2005–15 has been designated by UNESCO as ‘The Decade of Education for Sustainable Development’, it is particularly im…
Educational drama in the teaching of education for sustainability
In this paper, I describe part of my research project that examines the use of Educational Drama in Education for Sustainability in the upper stages of the primary school (10- and 11-year-olds). Central to the research is a small-scale qualitative research study. Here, I describe the educational focus of the study and outline the methodology. Central to the study was a series of drama lessons (taught by me) based on environmental themes. The less…
Drama and Children's Writing
This study sought to discover if drama were a particularly useful tool for developing children's skills in imaginative writing and for motivating them to write. The imaginative writing of children who had experienced drama was compared with that of similar children who had taken part in discussion work. Would the experience of drama help the children to meet the writing task more effectively in areas such as lexis, structure, voice (writing‐in‐ro…
