The Environmental Literacy and Inquiry Group researchers investigate how to improve environmental learning and instruction for learners in school settings, non-formal education settings, and informal learning with a focus on the role that learning technologies such as immersive virtual reality (VR) and geospatial technologies (GT) such as Google Earth and Geographical Information Systems (GIS) can play. We conduct research in these main areas:
 

    - Designing and testing environmental literacy learning experiences and curricula that integrates technologies to promote learning.

    - Assessing the impact of technology-embedded learning experiences and curriculum on learning.
 

We are especially interested in investigating:

      - How immerive learning experiences can promote engagement and learning.

     - How using learning technologies in schools can actively engage learners in developing spatial thinking and data analysis skills as they develop enduring understandings of real-world environmental problems and issues.

    - How learning science with technology-integrated curriculum influences environmental attitudes and behaviors with learners.
