Environmental education

The need for environmental education:



Themes such as global warming, deforestation, and


water pollution are regularly featured in the news,


 thereby raising our awareness of the troubled state


of Mother Earth. When educational institutions


—from elementary schools to university-based


English foundation programs recognize the value


 of environmental education,language teachers


will be in a unique position to promote


environmental awareness while teaching English.



 



Role of The teacher:



English language teaching professionals have


seen how English contributes to their students’


education, economic status, and competitiveness.


We have also seen firsthand how globalization has


made nations more interconnected and interdependent..




Levels of Environmental education:


(1) environmental awareness—that is, general


 familiarity with environmental issues.


(2) personal conduct knowledge, which translates


 awareness into action to preserve the environment.


(3) environmental literacy, which enables students


to learn underlying principles and gain skills


 for carrying out their own hands-on project.



 






The Resources :



Many language textbooks now include chapters


 on environmental topics. Furthermore, teachers


can use the Internet, where available, to find


environment-related resources that can be adapted to


meet their students’ content- and language-learning


needs.




Classroom Activities:



 Activity No. 1 involves a classroom scavenger


hunt, during which students practice reading


and speaking while learning about a variety


 of environmental topics.


 Activity No. 2  highlights a group paragraph-


writing task that recycles green content introduced


 through reading and/or listening activities.


•Activity No. 3  revolves around a song that


 reinforces the importance of the three “Rs”:


 Reduce- Reuse-Recycle.



 



Discrete skills instruction:



Brown  suggests integrating simple facts about


 the environment into exercises that focus on:


1-Imperatives (e.g., Don’t waste water).


2-Verb tenses (e.g., Polluted rivers are making people

sick)


3- Wh– questions (e.g., What happens to our trash?).


4-Environmental texts can be downloaded from

websites.




Instruction through project work:



Environmental awareness can be raised and


language skills improved when students engage


 in process- and product-oriented projects that


oblige skill integration and connections between what


students are learning in the classroom and their


 lives outside of it (Jacobs 1993). Environmental


topics can come to life through reading and writing


 projects that involve:



(1) researching topics of interest and writing


 academic papers;


(2) writing and illustrating children’s books or c


omic strips;


(3) creating posters, brochures, or bulletin


board displays.


(4) writing stories or opinion pieces for the


school newspaper.



 



Promoting personal responsibility:



Teachers can organize field trips to local recycling


 centers, if they exist, to learn how important


recycling is, how the process works, and what


items can and cannot be recycled.




Conclusion:



Language teachers have many opportunities to


 heighten students’ awareness about the


environmental problems plaguing the planet


while remaining committed to improving students’


English skills.



In addition to supporting meaningful language


instruction, such theme-based instruction encourages


 students to think critically, provides them with real


world knowledge, increases motivation, and


promotes learner autonomy.

 



Feedback:


  Environmental education is greatly needed in


active learning. The teacher should bring the


 learner's environment to the classroom so as to


 bring life to the theoretical text which students learn.


 Learners must listen, see, touch, hear, deal with 


and apply what they learn.


  I call for teaching learners to learn how to implement


the process of learning inside and outside classroom. 


Ex: It is lovely if the learner went home and


communicated with or greeted his parents, made


suggestions  and offers to them in English.



Environment can be brought to the classroom as


real things or realia to be used as teaching aids.


The teacher can take his learners to the real scene


of the lesson in life.  This is called teaching through


using environment directly.



 Environment can be brought to the classroom

 through using charts, cards, drawings,paintings,

miming, acting, playing roles, story theater and

video tapes or CDs.  This is called teaching through

using environment indirectly.
