Learnercentered teaching is a pedagogical approach that emphasizes the roles of students as participants in and drivers of their own learning. Learnercentered teaching activities go beyond traditional lecturing by helping students construct their own understanding of information, develop skills via handson engagement, and encourage personal reflection through metacognitive tasks. In addition, learnercentered classroom approaches may challenge students preconceived notions and expand their thinking by confronting them with thoughtprovoking statements, tasks or scenarios that cause them to pay closer attention and cognitively see a topic from new perspectives. Many types of pedagogy fall under the umbrella of learnercentered teaching including laboratory work, group discussions, service and projectbased learning, and studentled research, among others. Unfortunately, it is often not possible to use some of these valuable methods in all course situations given constraints ofmoney, space, instructor expertise, classmeeting and instructor preparation time, and the availability of prepared lesson plans and material. Thus, a major challenge for many instructors is how to integrate learnercentered activities widely into their courses.The broad goal of this volume is to help advance environmental education practices that help increase students environmental literacy. Having a diverse collection of learnercentered teaching activities is especially useful for helping students develop their environmental literacy because such approaches can help them connect more personally with the material thus increasing the chances for altering the affective and behavioral dimensions of their environmental literacy. This volume differentiates itself from others by providing a unique and diverse collection of classroom activities that can help students develop their knowledge, skills and personal views about many contemporary environmental and sustainability issues.
