After some months of organizing a new research project entitled, “The Land is my School: Children and the Landscape in British Columbia’s Past and the Enrichment of Contemporary Environmental Learning,” I am about the embark on a some conference presentations.
See the project blog at: https://blogs.ubc.ca/thelandismyschool/
This particular project, funded by a UBC Hampton Grant, continues to benefit from the research assistance provided by Claudia Diaz (PhD) and Jonathan Fisher (MEd), graduate students in EDST. Claudia and I continue to work on co-publishing papers from the project. Stay tuned for news of a blog devoted to “The Land is My School” research, as well as notices of publications. In the meantime….
