商品簡介
Bintliff gives an account of a successful program, similar to Outward Bound, implemented in an alternative school in the Midwest that reengaged and energized at-risk students, giving rise to confidence, community, and a renewed passion for learning. The program focused on social justice, community, and the ideas behind the Transformative Learning Theory of teaching. Chapters discuss the advantages of the outdoor learning experience, spontaneous education, multicultural education, middle school learners, and more. There are many quotes from kids involved in the program. Annotation c2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
