TEP-6451: An Intro to Ecoliteracy

While at least a century of progressive education has helped to map the foundations of critical social literacies, and environmental education has for some decades attempted to produce environmental literacy about the world, we are entering a new educational period in which we now recognize the demand for a critical literacy that allows for an integral understanding of the ecological relationship between the economic and the environmental, between culture and nature, the human and nonhuman, and self and other. This course will explore various aspects of what ecological literacies might in this way entail in the various place-based contexts that make up our lives at present. Its methodology will be critical, creative, dialogical, and utilizing a facilitated seminar format in which students present questions and ideas related to the week’s texts in combination with faculty contextualization and problem-posing.
