Does technology offer new opportunities to support urban children's nature connectedness? If you teach Year 5&6 in the UK please consider participating in this UCL collaborative project UCL Knowledge Lab
We are looking for Year 5&6 Teachers for our study on children’s nature connectedness and digital technology! Recognised by the DfE’s sustainability and climate change education strategy, supporting children to connect with nature is vital for their learning, mental/physical health, and future pro-environmental behaviours. There are several initiatives, including the DfE’s Education Nature Parks, that introduce a technology element in children’s nature education. Led by UCL researchers, this research will involve short interviews with teachers to inform design and policy with regards to if, when and how technology can be a useful tool in an urban context to spark children’s nature connectedness. Participants will learn more about the latest technology developments and have a say in academic research that seeks to inform their design. If you are a Year 5 or Year 6 teacher in an urban context within the UK, we’d appreciate your participation in a short interview (online with a face to face option if you are based in London).
