Green Street then and Now: Exploring Student Memories and Effectiveness of Green Street Environmental Education Programs Christine Macer

What do students remember about environmental education programs in which they participated? Do environmental education programs help develop pro- environmental behaviour? What kinds of questions should we be asking ourselves when we develop environmental education programs? Through an evaluative framework, this research will attempt to answer some of these questions. Using interdisciplinary sources the author explores the notions of learning, memory of experience, and life paths to pro-environmental behaviour as a framework. The evaluation looked at specific environmental education programs offered at four particular sites in British Columbia, Canada.
