摘要

环境教育作为解决环境问题的手段并没有产生预期的结果。有人认为,这是由于在我们目前的教育体系中实施环境教育,这种教育体系支持还原论和机械认识论。这种认识论是环境问题的根本原因。我们需要的是一种新的非剥削性认识论;一个更好的教育的基础。这种新的认识论将解决当前的环境危机。采用行动研究方法的环境教育被认为是实现认识论变化的转型推动者。环境教育应该成为向更好的教育转变的支点,而不是试图解决环境问题的创可贴。

Towards better education: Environmental education's pivotal role in the transformation of education
Environmental education as an agent for environmental problem solving has not produced the anticipated results. It is suggested that this is due to the implementation of environmental education in our present education system which espouses a reductionist and mechanistic epistemology. This epistemology is the underlying cause of environmental problems. What is needed, is a new non-exploitative epistemology; one on which better education is based. This new epistemology will resolve the present environmental crisis. Environmental education, using an action research approach, is presented as a transformation agent to enable epistemological change. Environmental education should act as a pivot in the transformation to better education rather than a band-aid trying to solve environmental problems.
