The fundamental vision of a new S|E|H pedagogy revolves around fostering a transdisciplinary dialogue among the three educational fields of science education, environmental education, and health education. This approach is gaining increasing interest among science educators. Since 2014, the ESERA Special Interest Group S|E|H has brought together experienced and junior researchers from across Europe, creating a vibrant research community. This book presents a selection of the outcomes of these dynamic activities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSystems theory has proven to be a stimulating theoretical framework for S|E|H, as it recognizes the inherent limitations of predictability in complex living systems, leading to structural uncertainty in decision-making. It emphasizes the need to reexamine pedagogical concepts such as informed citizenship and scientific literacy, challenging the crude scientific determinism often prevalent in environmental and health education, which can result in students experiencing eco- and health depression. Instead, S|E|H conceptualizes coping with uncertainty as an intricate interplay between cognitive and affective factors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the future remains uncertain, a new S|E|H pedagogy must hold onto the unwavering belief in hope. By embracing transdisciplinary dialogue, promoting scientific literacy, and fostering informed citizenship, we can navigate the complexities of the world and inspire a brighter future for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 462g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030752996\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2nd ed. 2021\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44295221444858,"sku":"9783030752996","price":76.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_07bdbb24-86d0-422c-a534-32f72777ed9e.jpg?v=1687522354","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/science-environment-health-towards-a-science-pedagogy-of-complex-living-systems-9783030752996","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
