Taylor & Francis Terrestrial Environments 16 Routledge Library
Book SynopsisOriginally published in 1975 Terrestrial Environments covers the zoogeography and ecology of the main terrestrial environments of the world, including fresh water habitats with emphasis on their fauna. The book also explores climate and vegetation in so far as they affect animal life. Finally, the selective influence of the environment on its fauna is discussed and, conversely, the influence of regulation, a synthesis of these interrelations. Morphological adaptations of the animals inhabiting various types of terrestrial environments are considered in relation to locomotion, feeding, and escape from enemies. Physiological adaptations are also mentioned briefly, and the adaptative importunate of diurnal and seasonal rhythms is stressed. Table of ContentsPreface 1. Zoogeography 2. Environmental Factors 3.

Book SynopsisEmpowering Teachers through Environmental and Sustainability Education draws inspiration from an empirical study exploring early career teachers' attempts at enacting Environmental and Sustainability Education (ESE) in their everyday teaching practices. It showcases how a confluence of personal, professional and environmental identities supports implementation of ESE. Additionally, this book discusses key concepts and issues surrounding ESE and the ways in which teachers may claim agency and power to create change in their classroom practices. Drawing from theoretical perspectives, such as Bourdieu's thinking tools' habitus and capital, theories of identity, and Foucault's concept of power and knowledge relations, this book explores how teachers negotiate policies, curriculum and institutional norms to further theoretical and practical understanding of ESE. The use of personal narratives offers new insights into teachers' agency in creating localised yet powerful change thrTrade Review"Holding out for hope is what we ‘do’ in times of uncertainty. Focused on the promise of better and inter-connected futures, this book illustrates the key role that early career teachers have in simultaneously shaping the teaching profession and the practices of Environmental and Sustainability Education"-Julianne Moss, Alfred Deakin Professor Deakin University, Director Research for Educational Impact – REDI, Deakin University, Australia "It is exciting to see a publication that celebrates teachers' and educators' everyday commitment to transformative change and ongoing learning about environmental education and sustainability. It is in the everyday that futures are made, and this book pays careful attention to the practices that provide the conditions for more sustainable futures. The future unfolds now, and this book helps to grasp the moment"-Iris Duhn, Associate Professor of Early Childhood, Monash University"Empowering teachers through Environmental and Sustainability Education offers powerful tools for harnessing teachers as global and local change makers in Environmental and Sustainability Education. Through practical examples, empowering stories, community-based approaches, and the examination of theories and policies, educators from diverse disciplines and backgrounds will find this text to be an exemplary resource for professional development"-Carie Green, Associate Professor of Graduate Education, University of Alaska, Fairbanks"Like ripples on a pond, this book, Empowering teachers through Environmental and Sustainability Education, celebrates how small, deliberate actions can embed environmental and sustainability education into classrooms in meaningful ways, paving the way to a brighter future for us all"-Andrea Nolan, Professor of Early Childhood Education, Deakin University"It’s so good to see the type of research, thinking and pedagogical practice highlighted by the authors of this book. It offers insights into the teaching and learning of Environmental Education and Sustainability in meaningful ways. A great read"-John Loughran, Emeritus Sir John Monash Distinguished Professor, Monash UniversityTable of Contents1: ESE: Finding hope amidst future concerns. 2: Educational landscapes: ESE curricular initiatives and change. 3: Identities matter: Teachers’ identities as a lens into teachers’ everyday practices. 4: Enacting agency and negotiating power: A theoretical framework. 5: Empowerment through storytelling: A combinational methodology. 6: Community partnerships – ‘Just sneak it in’: Subversive ways to include ESE. 7: The whole-school approach in ESE schools: ‘I’m the lucky one here’. 8: ESE in Early Childhood Education: ‘We do lots of little things … now’. 9: ESE in status quo schools: ‘It’s just not a priority’. 10: The hierarchical school and ESE: ‘New teachers cannot do anything’. 11: ESE in a rural school: ‘We became the grade who does things. 12: Hope for the future: Enacting power and agency in ESE
