Environmental education is an interdisciplinary field that encompasses a variety of areas. However, such an interdisciplinary field presents the challenge of creating a common understanding.
The purpose of this study was to construct a metatheory for deriving a fundamental common understanding of environmental education. The first step was to formulate a "Structure-Construction Environmental Education Model (SCEEM)" by applying structural constructivism. The second step was to present teaching practices focusing on all five senses as an approach through which the SCEEM can be applied.
The results suggested that the goals of the practitioner became clearer through practicing an environmental education program based on the SCEEM. Our findings suggest that the SCEEM can include various values and is an effective metatheory for creating a flexible framework.
