Title: Using the Arts to Teach Environmental Education through Self-Directed Learning

Abstract: To enhance students' environmental knowledge, art helps to transcend the classroom while incorporating academic content in multithemed lessons that integrate and meet academic standards. As Inwood remarks, this approach expands creativity and applies real world critical thinking skills to environmental problems, issues, and future sustainability. This study describes interdisciplinary instruction using environmental arts education, which encourages students to help community and local environments. The authors frame this experience for the youngsters by showing them how to create their own art so they can make immediate and personal connections to the natural environment. While participating in the educational lessons, students learn how their actions affect the environment, and through their own artistic contributions, they essentially become "environmental artists" who enrich the world at large. Students apply their understanding of these issues through self-directed learning experiences of the type described by Grava and Pole, and they discover direct connections between themselves, others, and the environment.

Title: Usare l'Arte per insegnare l'educazione ambientale attraverso l'apprendimento autonomo

Abstract: Per migliorare la conoscenza ambientale degli studenti, l'arte contribuisce a trascendere l'ambiente classe e incorporare, allo stesso tempo, contenuti accademici come parte di lezioni pluritematiche che soddisfano e integrano gli standard formativi. Come osservato da Inwood, tale approccio espande la creatività e implementa in un contesto reale le abilità di pensiero critico, rivolgendole alle questioni ambientali e al problema della sostenibilità futura. Il presente studio descrive la formazione interdisciplinare attraverso l'educazione artistica ambientale, che incoraggia gli studenti a sostenere le proprie comunità e i contesti locali. Gli autori contribuiscono a inquadrare tale esperienza prospettando ai giovani la creazione di opere d'arte che consentano loro di costruire legami immediati e personali con l'ambiente naturale. Nel partecipare a tali attività formative, gli studenti apprendono che le loro azioni influiscono sull'ambiente. Attraverso i loro contributi artistici, diventano, in sostanza, 'artisti ambientali', che arricchiscono il Mondo. Gli studenti applicano la loro comprensione delle questioni ambientali attraverso esperienze di apprendimento autonomo [self-directed learning] del tipo descritto da Grava e Pole e scoprono, inoltre, connessioni dirette con sé stessi, gli altri e l'ambiente.

Title: Utiliser les arts pour enseigner l'éducation environnementale grâce à l'apprentissage autonome

Abstract: Pour améliorer les connaissances environnementales des élèves, l'art aide à transcender la salle de classe tout en intégrant le contenu académique dans des leçons multithiques qui s'intègrent et répondent aux normes académiques.Comme le remarque Inwood, cette approche élargit la créativité et applique des compétences de pensée critique du monde réel aux problèmes environnementaux, aux problèmes et à la durabilité future.Cette étude décrit l'enseignement interdisciplinaire utilisant l'enseignement des arts environnementaux, qui encourage les étudiants à aider les environnements communautaires et locaux.Les auteurs encadrent cette expérience pour les jeunes en leur montrant comment créer leur propre art afin qu'ils puissent établir des liens immédiats et personnels avec l'environnement naturel.Tout en participant aux leçons éducatives, les élèves apprennent comment leurs actions affectent l'environnement et, grâce à leurs propres contributions artistiques, ils deviennent essentiellement des «artistes environnementaux» qui enrichissent le monde en général.Les élèves appliquent leur compréhension de ces problèmes grâce à des expériences d'apprentissage autodirigées du type décrit par Grava et Pole, et ils découvrent des liens directs entre eux, les autres et l'environnement.
