TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of knowledge about environmental issues related to energy and pollution in a national probability sample of American high school students was analyzed, and the results showed that the difference between male and female students remained even when the number of science classes taken was controlled.
Abstract: The objective of this study was to analyze the distribution of knowledge about environmental issues related to energy and pollution in a national probability sample of American high school students. Parental level of education, quantity of high school science courses, and gender (in favor of male students) all were found to be significantly related to the students' levels of knowledge about environmental issues related to energy and pollution. The difference between male and female students remained even when the number of science classes taken was controlled. Educational implications of the study are discussed.

TL;DR: This paper explored the relationship between art, art education, and the environment through a consideration of environment as imagined by contemporary ecotheorists, and projected the ramifications of this view as it relates to artmaking and art criticism.
Abstract: Eco-theory is shaping contemporary scholarship across academic areas. This shared discussion filters through the knowledge base of each discipline and field of study as scholars seek to link research and pedagogy with current environmental issues and concerns. Art educators are not unfamiliar with the relationships among art, art education, and the environment. This article continues to explore these relationships through a consideration of environment as imagined by contemporary ecotheorists. From this discussion emerges an expanded view of the concepts of community in relation to concepts of place. The authors project ramifications of this view as it relates to artmaking and art criticism.
