Outdoor Education and the Development of Environmental Responsibility Revisited.
Overview & Synopsis
Six research studies are reviewed that examine the ability of environmental education programs in schools and resident camps to positively affect the environmental awareness and attitudes of children and adolescents. Outdoor educators must enable students to develop internal locus of control, critical thinking, and environmental action skills. Research methodology and outcomes assessment must also be developed further. (TD)
