Rethinking Learning Environments: Community as Classroom | David Barnum | TEDxLangleyED
This is a Ted Talk by David Barnum, of the Okanagan School of Education at University of British Columbia, and enthusiastic BEETLES partner. It's about the value of placed-based learning, student-centered learning, and journaling, using effective journaling prompts to promote students' learning.
Potential ideas for coming up with week-long learning projects for Science Camp (students choose something to study, using journal prompts, coming up with research do to for 20-30 minutes per day for the week - maybe on ant behavior, bird songs, weather, etc).
