Descripción
The aim of this study was to test the notion of ecological citizen ship empirically in the English language classroom in an underrepresented region, Latin America. A pedagogic project aimed at the development of students as ecological citizens was designed and implemented in 2019 in four English language classrooms in a public secondary school in Argentina. Participants were 111 teenagers aged15–17 taking their fourth or fifth years. The project addressed the theme ‘the world we want’ using the unsustainable development goals as a foundation, in particular, those concerned with environmental issues. The study is theoretically grounded on the notion of ecological citizen ship and the research question is: How can language education contribute to securing a livable planet? Data type sinclude Instagram publications (video, text, and a variety of semiotic resources); Instagram comments; student artifacts created in class (graphs, charts, tables, icons); infographics sewed together to make a quilt; a project video; the Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters; and a final student survey. Qualitative analysis was done in three phases and findings indicate that the creative arts and community engagement in combination fostered students’ development as ecological citizens in this context. Implications for language education are considered.
