An Ecological Educational Paradigm

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

I outline an ecological educational paradigm (EEP), one with deep historical roots, that remedies the critical defects of the dominant educational paradigm (DEP), namely the division of academic labor into specialized disciplines, reductionism, anthropocentrism, and social atomism. Founded on epistemological holism and ontological interdependence, the EEP yields pedagogies of connectedness that reinsert humanity back into the world as a whole.
