ABSTRACT
The tenth anniversary of Environmental Education Research comes at an interesting time. The next 10 years of the journal overlap with the United Nation’s Decade for Education for Sustainable Development, with the possibilities that this may (or may not) bring for those working at the intersections of education and sustainable development. The journal’s anniversary also comes at a time when educational research in many countries is seeking a constructive response to a period of sustained challenge and critique. To quote from a recent article about criticisms of educational research, the 1990s was a decade when ‘most educational journals and many handbooks of research methodology in the UK and abroad hosted extensive debates on the (questioned) quality of educational research’ (Oancea, 2005, p. 157).
