{"pk":48272,"title":"Winter, Her Dolphin Tale, and the Rise of Environmental Education","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Dolphin Tale\n is a movie about a dolphin that loses its tail after being entangled in a crab trap line and obtains a prosthetic tail. The movie was presented to support environmental education classes at the University of Brasilia. Over a period of five years, 210 Brazilian undergraduate and graduate students answered questionnaires after watching it. The results demonstrate that the movie helped to accomplish environmental education goals: the comprehension of the role of scientific knowledge in solving socio-environmental problems, the impact of human activities on biodiversity, the novelty of the integrative interplay of different disciplines, and the importance of values in awareness.","language":"en","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"Interdisciplinarity"},{"word":"Values"},{"word":"biodiversity conservation"},{"word":"Environmental impact"},{"word":"movie"}],"section":"Arts and Sciences","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/11t8r92b","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Carlos","middle_name":"Hiroo","last_name":"Saito","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Brasilia","department":"None"}],"date_submitted":"2021-05-27T18:51:44+05:30","date_accepted":"2021-05-27T18:51:44+05:30","date_published":"2023-07-20T21:01:08+05:30","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cla_jlta/article/48272/galley/36335/download/"}]}
