520 "Climate change is occurring, is very likely caused by
human activities, and poses significant risks for a broad
range of human and natural systems. Each additional ton of
greenhouse gases emitted commits us to further change and
greater risks. In the judgment of the Committee on
America's Climate Choices, the environmental, economic,
and humanitarian risks of climate change indicate a
pressing need for substantial action to limit the
magnitude of climate change and to prepare to adapt to its
impacts. A principal message from the recent National
Research Council report, America's Climate Choices, this
brief summary of how climate change will shape many
aspects of life in the foreseeable future emphasizes the
vital importance of preparation for these changes. The
report points to the importance of formal and informal
education in supporting the public's understanding of
those challenges climate change will bring, and in
preparing current and future generations to act to limit
the magnitude of climate change and respond to those
challenges. Recognizing both the urgency and the
difficulty of climate change education, the National
Research Council, with support from the National Science
Foundation, formed the Climate Change Education
Roundtable. The roundtable brings together federal agency
representatives with diverse experts and practitioners in
the physical and natural sciences, social sciences,
learning sciences, environmental education, education
policy, extension education and outreach, resource
management, and public policy to engage in discussion and
explore educational strategies for addressing climate
change. Two workshops were held to survey the landscape of
climate change education. The first explored the goals for
climate change education for various target audiences. The
second workshop, which is the focus of this summary, was
held on August 31 and September 1, 2011, and focused on
the teaching and learning of climate change and climate
science in formal education settings, from kindergarten
through the first two years of college (K-14). This
workshop, based on an already articulated need to teach
climate change education, provided a forum for discussion
of the evidence from research and practice. The goal of
this workshop was to raise and explore complex questions
around climate change education, and to address the
current status of climate change education in grade K-14
of the formal education system by facilitating discussion
between expert researchers and practitioners in
complementary fields, such as education policy, teacher
professional development, learning and cognitive science,
K-12 and higher education administration, instructional
design, curriculum development, and climate science.
Climate Change Education in Formal Settings, K-14: A
Workshop Summary summarizes the two workshops."--
