Abstract:
In this study the concept reading nature and its contribution to science education is discussed. Some scientific concepts relevant for reading nature are defined. Reading nature has to do with the ability to recognise organisms and relate them to material cycling and energy flow in the specific habitat which is to be read. It has to do with authenticity where the natural world that we face outside is the book to be read and the tools we have are our experiences from previous learning situations both in and out-ofdoors. The data in the study is based on the following student groups; student tea

Abstract:
As the 20th century comes to a close, humanity faces an unprecedented global ecological crisis. The postmodern tapestry which constitutes this dissertation is an educator's response to the crisis. My theory of Ecofeminist Literacy, a critical ecofeminist postmodern epistemology, constitutes the central design of this tapestry. The genesis of Ecofeminist Literacy represents the interweaving and synergism of diverse theoretical threads: Ecological Literacy, Ecofeminism, Critical Postmodern Hermeneutics, The Sociological Imagination, Gandhian Non-Violence, and Curriculum as a Process of Inquiry.

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to advance a curriculum which provides learners with educative experiences required to promote an ecological literacy. This particular type of literacy enables individuals and communities to understand their connectedness to all systems, to appreciate the finite carrying capacity of the planet, to predict consequences of human activity, and to ultimately create sustainable communities through action, or praxis. The proposed curriculum is a vision of public education in Manitoba, borrowing examples of experiences throughout the world which are then adapted to meet the ecologi

Abstract:
The focus of this research relates to physical activity (PA) among populations at risk for inactivity. Two studies were completed. Study 1 was an exploratory study examining the relationship between health literacy (HL) and PA as they relate to the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) constructs. Study 2 was an action research-based project in partnership with the staff and students of an alternative school. In Study 1 participants (N=65) completed measurements including the REALM to assess HL, and accelerometers to establish PA levels. The results of this study showed that even after controllin
