Learning at the Edge of History

Abstract: This chapter explores essential questions of the role of education in society and how it must change as humanity assumes control and responsibility for many of the Earth’s systems. The chapter begins with an analysis of foundational concepts of education’s purpose and how and when its purpose as a societal construct was clear.

“…Investigating land use and the slope of the area in Batu City provides information related to watershed problems that will arise. After students know the watershed problems in Batu City, students choose the proper conservation method to overcome these problems (Cook, 2019). When students can sum up the author's perspective on the watershed and the conservation challenges around it that are covered in learning activities, they can develop conclusion-making skills (Handoko et al, 2019;Rumalolas et al, 2021).…”

Other than studies that conceptualise a synergy between sustainability and well-being research (e.g., Barrington-Leigh, 2016;Cook, 2019;Kjell, 2011), the few empirical studies that indicate a relationship between sustainability and well-being have been conducted at a macro level (e.g., Veenhoven, 2004). Such studies connect these phenomena in areas other than tourism (Hall et al, 2015;Jacob et al, 2008;Venhoeven et al, 2020).…”

“…The National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NCCA) offers an operative definition for wellbeing: "Student well-being is present when students realise their abilities, take care of their physical well-being, can cope with the normal stresses of life, and have a sense of purpose and belonging to a wider community" (NCCA 2017, p. 17). Wellbeing has emerged as a central theme in Irish educational policy (DES 2019; NEPS 2019), with this prominence reflected in the international literature (Konu and Rimpelä 2002;Adler 2017;Cook 2019).…”
