The home of environmental education professional development
I am in the thick of creating a presentation about the positives of EE in a social justice context for a education and social justice conference. With that background, I'm looking for any research regarding the effects of EE on student-teacher relationships. I have plenty of anecdotal evidence from personal experience, but I'd love some research to back it up. Any resources you'd be willing to share?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Kirsten-
