The Land Is Like a Book.

Andrews, Tom

Pathways: The Ontario Journal of Outdoor Education, v14 n1 p18-20 Win 2002

A 10-day summer science camp for high school students at an ecological research station in the Canadian tundra combines outdoor education and science education. Experiences with Dene elders led staff to implement their traditional teaching methods using the landscape as teacher. All classes are held outside, and a Dene couple complements the staff of scientists as instructors. (TD)
