ClearThe role of the arts and crafts subject in education for sustainable development
Researchers conducted a qualitative study on the role of arts and crafts education in a Norwegian interdisciplinary teaching project focused on marine litter, using participatory observation and the Visual Art Based Participatory Method to analyze student outputs from grades 5-10. Results indicate that creative making processes in arts and crafts uniquely enable students to express and process emotional responses to marine plastic pollution beyond standard curriculum competence goals.
Creating Creative Educational Opportunities among Engineering and Arts Students
This paper is not about microplastics — it describes an educational model that integrates engineering and arts students through design-thinking collaborative projects.
Effect of Design Thinking to Develop Marine and Coastal Environmental Attitudes
This paper is not relevant to microplastics research — it evaluates a design thinking educational approach for improving marine and coastal environmental awareness among students, focused on teaching sustainability concepts.
Promoting sustainability and conservation practices through environmental education in Aceh, Indonesia
This paper is not about microplastics; it is a mixed-methods study examining how environmental education programs in Aceh, Indonesia influence sustainability practices and conservation awareness.
Eco-Art and Reeling in Anthropogenic Adversity
This paper explores how eco-art practices can raise awareness of anthropogenic pollution, including microplastics, by engaging communities through creative and visual approaches. The authors argue that artistic interventions can complement scientific communication in addressing environmental adversity.
Plastic waste micro-management towards innovative sustainable living in inspiring art practice
This paper is not directly about microplastic science; it describes a participatory art project in a Malaysian village where artists and communities collaborated to manage plastic waste and raise awareness about plastic pollution through sustainable art practices.
Education for Sustainable Development Oriented Didactic Design in A Bioplastic Context in Overcoming Barriers to Learning and Developing Attitude and Environmental Awareness
Researchers designed and evaluated a bioplastic curriculum using Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) principles, finding that hands-on bioplastic-making activities improved student understanding of sustainability concepts. The didactic design demonstrates how materials science and environmental education can be integrated in classroom settings.
Woven into the air– Dance as a practice towards ecologically and socially just communities
This arts education research paper examines how dance-based pedagogical methods can foster ecological awareness and justice in diverse student groups. It is a creative arts education study with no direct connection to microplastic research.
Make Me A Vessel: A Craft Based Exploration of Feminized Labour and Sustainability
This practice-led art research paper examines the feminization of sustainability labor through craft explorations involving vessels and bags. This is an arts research paper with no direct relevance to microplastics or environmental health.
Visible Mending, Street Stitching, and Embroidered Handkerchiefs: How Craftivism is Being Used to Challenge the Fashion Industry
This paper examined how craftivism — activist art using knitting, sewing, and embroidery — is being used to draw public attention to the environmental and labor injustices of the fast fashion industry. Craftivist projects create conversation about plastic microfiber pollution, overproduction, and waste in textile supply chains. The movement represents a grassroots approach to challenging unsustainable fashion consumption.
Plastic pollution and environmental education through artwork
This study explores how upcycling discarded plastics into artwork can serve as a tool for environmental education about plastic pollution. Researchers describe an art installation collaboration that brought together the art world and environmental advocacy to raise public awareness. The study suggests that creative approaches to reusing plastic waste can effectively engage communities in understanding the scale and consequences of plastic pollution.
Biomimicry Design Education Essentials
This paper reviews how biomimicry — design inspired by natural systems — is being integrated into education programs. It is an educational design paper with no relevance to microplastics or environmental health.
Creative-Motivated Citizen Science After-School STEAM Programme for Motivating Actions Related to the Oceanic Microplastics Problem
Researchers designed and evaluated a nine-week citizen science STEAM after-school programme for primary school children focused on microplastic sampling and local ocean pollution solutions, finding that creative and motivational activities sustained family engagement for at least 10 months beyond the programme's conclusion.
Transformative STEAM Educators Developing Students’ Capabilities For Resolving Global Sustainability Crises
This paper argues that transformative STEAM education — integrating science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics — can develop students' capacity to address global sustainability crises including plastic pollution. The research advocates for educational approaches that go beyond conventional curricula to build environmental problem-solving skills.
Towards a post-humanist design for educational inclusion
This participatory action research project worked with residents of a litter-polluted Belgian coastline to develop arts-based educational approaches that foster greater awareness of how plastic pollution damages shared living environments for humans and wildlife alike. While focused on pedagogy, the study underscores how community engagement and environmental literacy are important complements to scientific research on plastic pollution.
From Trash to Fashion: Understanding Wearable Art as Environmental Activism
This paper examines wearable art projects that incorporate plastic waste as a form of environmental activism and material rhetoric, arguing that fashioning trash into garments makes ecological crises tangible and challenges consumer culture through aesthetic engagement.
School science activities with contributions from STEM practices: A study to address complex problems in elementary school classes, in the case of microplastics and their harmful effects
Researchers developed a theoretical and explanatory framework identifying which aspects of STEM education can strengthen the design of school science activities addressing complex problems such as microplastic pollution in elementary school settings. The study proposes a model for integrating STEM practices into classroom activities to build students' capacity to engage with real-world environmental challenges.
Application of the Steam Approach in Efforts to Improve 4c Skills in Elementary School Students
This education research paper examined the effectiveness of the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) teaching approach for developing 21st-century skills in elementary students. This is a pedagogy paper with no direct connection to microplastics or environmental science.
Community-Engaged Research Projects in School Settings: Science Teachers’ Practices and Reflections
Not relevant to microplastics — this education research study analyzes how nine teachers implemented community-engaged research projects addressing environmental justice issues in their classrooms, focusing on pedagogy, student empowerment, and institutional challenges.
Sustainability Matters
This paper is not about microplastics; it is a longitudinal study of engineering students' evolving awareness of and engagement with sustainability issues during their studies.
