Meaningful change does not come from continuously doing the same thing. More information about science and social justice issues will be helpful in keeping issues like climate change and social injustice current. It will set up a context for meaningful change. Still, something more radical may be essential. In times of change, uncertainty, and stress, interest in values and ethics increases. Unfortunately, ethics are messy and uncomfortable. This presentation introduces an analytical and practical tool that I call a heuristic. I have chosen this term because it suggests that this tool is designed to help educators reflect on their own conceptions of ethics and education, to help them make decisions about content worthy of inclusion in their lessons and examine the ways that this content might be educationally presented.

A novel method of using ocean plastic has been developed as a catalyst for student-centered learning experiences at Yas SeaWorld Research and Rescue (YSWRR). Based on contemporary art-making practice, educational psychology theories, and design-thinking methodologies, plastic-asking is easily replicable, low-cost, and can be implemented according to the unique needs of learners. Considering the strengths of human-centered designers as assets for sustainable development, (i.e., empathy, tolerance for ambiguity) this method gently guides learners to connect with others through a variety of creative means.

The "indigenous knowledge" addressed in this study includes tacit knowledge and bodily knowledge that cannot be communicated in language, and it covers the knowledge of how people interact with the natural environment (mountains, fields, rivers, and oceans) and how they acquire such knowledge. The core question of this study is to clarify the content and acquisition process of "indigenous knowledge" formed through direct physical contact with the natural environment (land). Such interact with the land was part of daily life in the days when the means of production and living were procured directly from the immediate natural environment. Therefore, subjective, physical knowledge was acquired and passed on unconsciously. Now, however, that foundation is crumbling. The second question, therefore, is to clarify how we can intentionally create the conditions for the formation and transmission of "indigenous knowledge" to the next generation, given that the foundation for its formation and transmission is disappearing.
