Title: Developing an ecological consciousness as an international student at Lakehead University: a practical guide
Authors: Bhal, Neetu Rani
Keywords: Ecological education;Ecological literacy;Ecological consciousness;Teacher training
Issue Date: 2019
Abstract: The portfolio will focus on the increasing ecological consciousness of teachers and student populations in India and Canada. It will largely focus on my personal journey from India to Canada in terms of my ecological understanding. This study is an attempt to explore the need for ecological literacy and consciousness at the level of educators and learners. This study will also focus on the effects and impact of this practice in every educational sector in their different contexts. To build the concept and actual application of an ecological conscious learner, I have encorporated major episodes of my related classes of ecological consciousness course in the Fall term of 2018, ecological macro-model activities, as well as some practical activities of home products. In addition to this, I have applied my knowledge acquired from different assignments that went on throughout my course. On this basis, I will critically examine some literature to support my research argument. The chosen literature review ranges from the background knowledge of ecological systems to its connections to human life. To support my argument, I will present four videos related to my personal journey of ecological consciousness. I believe that the videos will support concerned groups to increase their understanding of ecological education.
