Environmental Education in the United States: A Survey of Preservice Teacher Education Programs

Pages 4-11 | Published online: 31 Mar 2010
 

Abstract

The status of the environmental education component of preservice teacher education programs is unknown nationally. This study surveyed 715 institutions of teacher education using a mail questionnaire. The response rate was approximately 63%. The results indicate that most schools have few requirements related to environmental education, and in the majority of schools environmental education is not institutionalized.
