ABSTRACT
As a researcher I have a keen interest in the topic of ‘doing research’ and find myself frequently addressing my own questions of what it means to ‘do research’. As a reviewer of papers submitted to journals in this field I also have a critical interest in how others ‘do research’ and how collections of research contribute to the field. And as an environmental educator I want to know how research in environmental education will move the field forward. Environmental education is an important strategy in addressing environmental problems faced by communities around the world. Therefore, I am particularly keen to know how the act of ‘doing research’ will advance the field of environmental education and as such contribute to the solution of broader environmental problems.
