Abstract

The pandemic has taught that current approach to environmental literacy has proven to be inadequate
and heavy reliance of schooling in conveying the Environmental Education might never be enough. In place of
schooling, the paper attempts to show how the vernacular, yet mediated, social learning on everyday nature
may help facilitate the awareness of place, which is acknowledged as one of the crucial aspects for
environmental conservation. Encompassing the idea of attachment, identity, rootedness, and spirituality, the
notion of place has been very critical for environmental literacy, especially with the inclination towards online
learning under the digital transformation. Although literatures tend to posit the idea of place (associated with
bodily connection) in absolute contradiction to space (associated with virtual connectivity), the fact that Internet
has profound impact to the everyday setting of social learning is inevitable, hence need to be scrutinized
properly. Attempting to address the issue, the study employed a life world analytical ethnography to collect the
data and thematic analysis to interpret it, while corroborate it with literature reading from interdisciplinary
perspective. The study confirms the need to spark off experiential learning to substantiate the sensibility of
place while advancing the use of the media for critical learning.
