O autorze

Konstantinos Korfiatis is Professor of Environmental Education at the Department of Education, University of Cyprus. His research interests expand to the areas of environmental education, ecology and sustainability education. In particular, he explores the concepts of children participation, motivation and agency through climate change and school-garden programmes. He currently is a member of the Academic Committee of ERIDOB.  

Marcus Grace is Professor of Science Education and Head of the Education School at the University of Southampton, UK. His main interests include learning and teaching about socio-scientific issues, particularly biodiversity conservation and outdoor science education. He has served as a Chair of the Academic Committee of ERIDOB, and has researched and published widely on education for socio-scientific issues with colleagues around the world. 

Marcus Hammann is Professor of Biology Education at Münster University, Germany. His research interests include cognitive and affective aspects of evolution and genetics education. He is co-editor of Contributions from Biology Education Research (CBER), the Springer international book series of the European Researchers in Didactics of Biology (ERIDOB) and Chair of the Academic Committee of ERIDOB. 

Blurb

This open access volume is a collection of full papers based on the peer-reviewed presentations accepted for the European Researchers in Didactics of Biology, ERIDOB 2022 conference. ERIDOB aims to bring together researchers in didactics of Biology from Europe and around the world to share and discuss their research work and results. It is the only major international conference whose focus lies exclusively on biology education research, and all the papers are written by international researchers from across Europe (and beyond) which report on a range of contemporary biology education research projects. They are all entirely new papers describing new research in the field. Each paper has been peer-reviewed by experienced biology education researchers and the members of the ERIDOB Academic Committee.   

The selected papers are collated within the following categories of biology education:  

·       Teaching Strategies and Learning Environments  

·       Students’ Knowledge, Conceptions, Values, Attitudes and Motivation  

·       Outdoor and Environmental Education  

·       Biology Teachers’ Professional Development  

By providing a collection of new research findings from many countries, this book is a great resource for researchers and practitioners such as school, college and university biology teachers' around the world. It is useful for training biology teachers and therefore valuable to teacher training institutions.
