Eco-Emotions: The Advocate For Change

Replace this link once the multimedia presentation has been published.
This template provides tips for the topic development exercise.
Gradually remove these suggestions as the chapter develops.
Also consult the book chapter guidelines.

Overview

Ecological Emotions - an emotional sense reactive to the interconnected changing of our natural and social environment.

There will be a focus on the eco-emotional response to the changing social climate and the influence of social media the promote change targeting the human ecological emotive response. The social issue of Gender Inequality will be used as an ongoing example with reference to both current and historical feminist movements.

\Imagine ... a scenario or case study which illustrates the problem and engages reader interest. Consider including an image (see Figure 1). The scenario could be presented in a feature box.

The Overview is typically 180 to 330 words.

Eco-emotions; the advocate for change

Focus questions:

Main headings

Why should we care? Indirect issues on a personal basis.
'#MeToo'
Factors limiting Action: (Online Caution, Cultural Differences)

Aim for three to six main headings between the Overview and Conclusion
Sub-headings can also be used, but avoid having sections with only one sub-heading

Key points

Why should we care? Indirect issues on a personal basis:
what are ecological emotions?
how to deal with ecological emotions?
Example: Suffragettes
Revolution: Sexual revolution, why protest?
What are the consequences of acting.
social / cultural context.
#MeToo:
Influence of Social Media on choosing to act/speak. - diffusion of responsibility and social influence
What influenced people to come forward?
Act global not local? - Why not to the attention of local authorities? - Anonymous

Gender Inequality issues historically: Birth Control, Sexual Revolution etc., and how these eco-emotions were more/less apparent, yet, always present referring to psychological theory. I will use a historical movement as a case study.

Provide at least 3 bullet-points per heading, including for the Overview and Conclusion
Include key citations

Learning features

Interactive learning features bring online book chapters to life and can be embedded throughout the chapter.

Collective Action Theory - belief that through collective action ones group could make change.

Case studies

Bystander Effect on Climate Change as example.
Suffragettes

Case studies describe real-world examples of concepts in action.
Case studies can be real or fictional.
A case study could be split into multiple sections throughout a chapter to illustrate different theories or stages.
It is often helpful to present case studies using feature boxes.

Feature boxes

Important content can be highlighted in a feature box. But don't overuse feature boxes, otherwise they lose their effect. There are several ways of creating boxes. Recommended: Pretty boxes).
Consider using feature boxes for:
- Focus questions
- Case studies or examples
- Quiz questions
- Take-home messages

A very simple box can be created by using a space at the start of the line

Feature box example

Shaded background
Coloured border
Change the theme number for different colours

Figures

Use figures to illustrate concepts, add interest, and to serve as examples
Figures can show photos, diagrams, graphs, etcetera
Figures can be embedded throughout the chapter, including the Overview section
Figures should be captioned (using Figure #. and a description). Captions explain the relevance of the image to the text/
Wikimedia Commons provides a library of embeddable images
Images can also be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons if they are openly licensed
Refer to each figure at least once in the main text (e.g., see Figure 2)

Links

When key words are introduced, use interwiki links
These links can go to:
- Wikipedia (e.g., Sigmund Freud wrote about (e.g., dreams) or
- Related book chapters (e.g., if your are struggling, you might be interested to read the chapter about writer's block)

Tables

Use tables to organise and summarise information
As with figures, tables should be captioned (e.g., see Table 1)
Refer to each table at least once in the main text (e.g., see Table 1)
Example 3 x 3 tables which could be adapted

Table 1. Descriptive Caption Which Explains The Table and its Relevant to the Text - Johari Window Model

	Known to self	Not known to self
Known to others	Open area	Blind spot
Not known to others	Hidden area	Unknown

Quizzes

Using one or two review questions per major section is usually better than a long quiz at the end
Quiz conceptual understanding, rather than trivia
Don't make quizzes too hard
Different types of quiz questions are possible; see Quiz

Conclusion

The Conclusion is arguably the most important section
The Conclusion is typically 150 to 330 words
What are the take-home messages likely to be?
It should be possible for someone to only read the Overview and the Conclusion and still get a good idea of the problem and what is known based on psychological science

Suggestions for this section:

What is the answer to the sub-title question based on psychological theory and research?
What are the answers to the focus questions?
What are the practical, take-home messages?

Imagine ... a scenario or case study which illustrates the problem and engages reader interest. Consider including an image (see Figure 1). The scenario could be presented in a feature box.

The Overview is typically 180 to 330 words.

Suggestions for this section:

Engage the reader with a scenario, example, or case study, and an accompanying image
Explain the problem and why it is important
Outline how psychological science can help
Present focus questions

Focus questions: Break the problem (see the sub-title) down into three to five focus questions. Focus questions could also be used as top-level headings.

What is the first focus question?
What is the second focus question?
What is the third focus question?

Ask open-ended focus questions. For example:

Is there a relationship between motivation and success? (closed-ended)
What is the relationship between motivation and success? (open-ended)

I am using the issue of Gender Inequality, particularly in Western Society, as an ongoing example of how eco emotions are used, and acknowledged to motivate change.

The exact chapter I’m writing will discuss this in direct reference to modern western society, and the prevalence of eco-emotions to act, using the recent ‘MeToo’ movement, to discuss the influence and use of social media to promote world issues, igniting an ecological emotional response, motivating others to act (what made them come forward), however small, even from a phone.

Following, the rest of the book chapter headings would discuss why people respond to in-direct issues on a personal basis using psychological theory.

The other sub headings would refer to briefly the Gender Inequality issues historically, such as the Suffragette Movement, Birth Control, Sexual Revolution etc, and how these eco-emotions were more/less apparent, yet, always present referring to psychological theory. I will use a historical movement as a case study.

Further subheadings would cover the influence and prominence of eco-emotions and if eco-emotions on Feminism differ in cultures.

Prior conclusion, I will discuss the limitations of eco-emotions to motivate change, based on cultural and political limitations to act on ecological-emotions (eg government / political restrictions / resources / repercussions)
