Abstract: This article describes future trends in environmental education (EE) research
based on a mixed-methods study where data were collected through a content
analysis of peer-reviewed articles published in EE journals between 2005 and
2010; interviews with experts engaged in EE research and sustainability-related
fields; surveys with current EE researchers; and convenings with EE researchers
and practitioners. We discuss four core thematic findings: (1) EE researchers are
highlighting the importance of collective and community learning and action;
(2) EE researchers are placing increased emphasis on the intersection of learning
within the context of social–ecological communities (e.g. links between environmental quality and human well-being); (3) a pressing need exists for research
conducted with urban and diverse populations; and (4) research around social
media and other information technologies is of great interest, yet currently is
sparse.
