What are some common barriers to learning in nature? How can we shift the paradigm whereby learning about nature is prioritized? What are some key lessons we can learn from nature? How does learning for nature also benefit learners? Here's what else we dove into in this Earthy Chat:
- the purpose of environmental education and education as a whole
- transitioning from “sage on the stage” to “guide on the side”
- escaping the cycle of mediocrity
- getting beyond the “I-don’t-know-enough-about-nature-to-teach-it” mindset
- how we can learn from nature more effectively
- antidotes to perpetual student boredom
- lessons from Anne of Green Gables
- embracing reciprocity as a guiding principle
- how to be a “solutionary”
