Educating outdoors in nature is increasingly happening
at locations all over Australia. Sue Elliott and I invited a group of Victorian
educators to meet and share some of the great work they are doing.
Today we met at the Darebin Parklands environment
centre.
I loved
hearing how strong and different philosophical belief shaped pedagogical
practice. Passionate educators articulated that it was essential to
maintain the vibrant educational community we are in. How we educate must be
shaped by the context in which we work. We have a lot we can learn from each other. There is not, and should not be a one
size fits all approach to educating in the outdoors.
