In order to provide a citizen education in Environmental Health, it is necessary to know the current educational scenario and also to give functional meaning to what is understood by competence in Environmental Health. This analysis requires exploring the coherence between: a) the health and environmental problems presented; b) the teaching offered...
In previous work we have studied what students know in relation to SEH, what is included in the curriculum and what is missing. Time has come to provide a comprehensive visual tool aimed at facilitating the approach of any environmental health problem or challenge that teachers should decide to tackle with their students.
The “SEH visual tool” is a...
The term Science|Environment|Health (S|E|H) stands for a pedagogy of mutual benefit between science education, environmental education, and health education. Complexity is an important aspect of most S|E|H issues. In the natural sciences, and thus in science education, prediction plays a central role. Yet, complex systems usually do not allow for f...
This paper focuses on the competencies in environmental health acquired by students during compulsory education. Questionnaires addressing environmental health problems were completed by 923 students of primary and secondary schools from five different Spanish regions. The results for five challenging situations related to hunger, consumerism, clim...
This paper aims to discuss complexity as a key feature for understanding the role of science knowledge in environmental and health contexts—a central issue in Science|Environment|Health pedagogy. Complex systems are, in principle, not predictable. In different contexts, ephemeral mechanisms produce different, sometimes completely unexpected results...
Nuestro modelo de desarrollo, insostenible, genera presiones que cambian el estado del medio ambiente. Surgen así problemas ambientales que han sido y siguen siendo objeto de preocupación en numerosas conferencias y declaraciones internacionales. En busca de soluciones a estos problemas es considerada la educación ambiental, eje central de la prese...
RESUMEN: En esta comunicación se presentan los resultados de un estudio desarrollado con jóvenes valencianos para conocer las competencias en salud ambiental que adquieren en su paso por la educa-ción obligatoria. Para ello se elaboró un cuestionario, validado por un grupo de expertos y sometido a una prueba piloto. El cuestionario aborda su concep...
Addressing the environmental health competences that young students acquire is essential as education enables the mobilization of capacities necessary to face the existing and emerging environmental health problems of today's society. The main goal of the present research was to study if students acquire Environmental Health competences through Com...
