SELF-ANALYSIS is a great way to learn. The Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has applied this idea to environment education. Sharply different from the usual song and dance one sees in the name of environment in many schools, this contest (Green Schools Programme) impelled children and their teachers to analyse the school's own track record and to improve it.....
Few though they are, CSE's green schools offer a modicum of hope in a schizophrenic landscape. The idea of self-audit has the potential to make environment-related learning a means of gluing back together the fragmented school curriculum. It also promises to instil mindfulness in human relations with nature and thereby materialise a dynamic kind of value-education.
