The Terrain of Place-Based Education: A Primer for Teacher Education in Canada
Webber, Geoff; McVittie, Janet; Miller, Dianne; Hellsten, Laurie
Brock Education: A Journal of Educational Research and Practice, v30 n1 p10-29 2021
The trajectory of place-based education (PBE) is laid out by drawing on literature from outdoor, experiential, environmental, critical, and land-based education to map key intersections and influences. Directions for PBE with respect to decolonization and reinhabitation--and the meaningful acknowledgement of Indigenous knowledge systems--are explored. Implications for teacher education are addressed.
