School in and with nature - Sylvain Wagnon and Corine Martel
Many educators are wondering how to provide education in and with nature. How can we make outdoor activities part of the ordinary practices of urban life? How can we reconcile ourselves with the perception of the environment as a space conducive to education? How can we integrate regular outdoor activities into teaching practices?
Attempts to educate in and with nature are not new. Corine Martel and Sylvain Wagnon will explain that this is a pedagogical tradition which, from Rousseau to Education nouvelle, from classes-promenades to Forests Schools, has amply demonstrated its fruitfulness. They will also tell us that what was useful yesterday is becoming urgent today to train tomorrow's citizens. Through their scientific contributions, we'll discover why and how living outdoors has become an essential part of building our relationship with the world.
How can we ensure that education in and with nature is an integral part of every student's learning path, and that the networking of players contributes to its continuity and coherence?
