Fortner, School of Natural Resources, The Ohio State University, USA  \nAbstract  \nResearch indicates that teachers place a high priority on climate change as a topic their students should know, but report their own knowledge as inadequate for teaching it. Students (and some teachers) seem unable to distinguish among related environmental issues, and treat general “environmentally friendly”behavior as affecting all issues. The curricular fit of global climate change is best in Earth systems oriented classrooms but opportunities exist across the curriculum; instructional materials are available, though these may not address misconceptions. Some interest groups oppose human-mediated climate change as a curriculum topic, for the same reasons they oppose public action on the problem.  \nRésumé  \nD’après la recherche, les enseignants estiment qu’il est important pour leurs élèves d’être au courant du changement climatique, mais que leur propre connaissance du phénomènen’est pas à la hauteur. Les élèves et certains enseignants semblent incapables de distinguer les enjeux environnementaux connexes et considèrent que le comportement écologique engénéral affecte tous les enjeux. L’adéquation du changement climatique planétaire avec le programme d’études est plus réussie dans les cours axés sur les systèmes terrestres, mais ilexiste aussi d’autres possibilités. Des documents d’instruction sont aussi disponibles, quoiqu’ils n’abordent peut-être pas les interprétations erronés. Certains groupes d’intérêt refusent que le programme d’études aborde le sujet du changement climatique causé par les humains pour les mêmes raisons qu’ilss’opposent à l’action du public face au problème.  \n18 Canadian Journal of Environmental Education, 6, Spring 2001  \nBackground  \nJust as the concept of organic evolution serves as an organizer for modern biological science, global climate change is focusing the attentions of the Earth science community, justifying the need to organize its many disciplines. Like organic evolution, global climate change is complex and involves scales of time and space not well understood by the adult public. And like evolution, public opinion surveys (over 30 in the past decade) indicate a mix of attitudes and a wide range of knowledge levels about its science. On the whole, however, a majority of Americans seem to believe that global warming (used synonymously with global climate change) is a serious threat to their life as well as a reality (e.g., Gallup, 1997; Pew Research Center, 1997; Krosnick & Visser, 1998; Fortner, Lee, Corney, Romanello, Bonnell, Luthy, Figuerido, & Ntsiko, 2000). Nevertheless, people see this issue as being different from others in its level of uncertainty and intangibility, and so may confront it differently in making personal choices (Lee & Fortner, 2000) .  \nShould a topic with such high media attention and potential impact, even though it is complex, uncertain, and intangible, be included in the school curriculum? Preparation for the responsibilities of citizenship in a global society, as well as development of individual sustainable lifestyles, should dictate that global climate change appear in formal education. Indeed, science curriculum restructuring efforts in the United States insist that reform should involve aspects that favour instruction on global climate change:  \n• “Science in personal and social perspectives” is a content area within the National Science Education Standards for the U.S. The subject matter includes Changes in Environments and Science and Technology in Local Challenges (National Research Center, 1996) .  \n• Interdisciplinary curriculum is a goal for science literacy. Benchmarks (American Association for the Advancement of Science [AAAS], 1993) defines the concept as applying to:  \n-integrated planning across disciplines,-interconnected knowledge, and  \n-coherence of student experiences.  \n• Global ","cbCainLiVykRxfQj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainLiVykRxfQj","pdf",135322,14,"English","# Background\n## Teachers, student understanding, and uncertainty\n## Curriculum rationale and national standards\n## Earth Systems Education as a unifying approach","[{\"question\":\"Why do teachers consider climate change important, and what limitation do they report?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers prioritize climate change as a topic their students should know, but many report that their own knowledge is inadequate for teaching it.\"},{\"question\":\"What problems do students (and some teachers) have regarding related environmental issues?\",\"answer\":\"They seem unable to distinguish among related environmental issues and may treat general “environmentally friendly” behavior as affecting all issues.\"},{\"question\":\"Where does climate change fit best in the curriculum, and what instructional support exists?\",\"answer\":\"Its curricular fit is best in Earth-systems–oriented classrooms, and instructional materials are available, though they may not address misconceptions.\"}]","Climate Change in School - Where Does It Fit and How Ready Are We? | PDF",1792084636,35]
