“…This challenge is reflected in recent research that shows a myriad of influences on science learning around climate change, far beyond the changes in conceptual knowledge often implicated in other domains of science learning. For example, research shows that worldview (Zummo et al, 2021 ), social norms (Busch et al, 2019b ), values (Aksit et al, 2018 ), epistemic cognition (Quarderer et al, 2021 ), political identity (Walsh & Tsurusaki, 2018 ), and emotions (Hufnagel, 2015 ) are likely influential. As a whole, this work has begun to reveal the multiple, complex, and at times contradictory influences these variables can exert on learning about such a socially and culturally fraught issue as climate change.…”
