On this week’s podcast, I talk with Minnesota naturalist Claire Dobie. Nature-based education is popular – who doesn’t like a field trip? But we don’t talk as much about how learning while immersed in the outdoors, in nature, can impact student behavior and outcomes.
Claire and I discuss the profession of naturalist and the “nature” of “nature-based education” – how we do it, why we do it, and how to get started!
Maybe most importantly, Claire and I talk about saying “I don’t know” when you have to. It’s a great way to model for learners that we don’t know everything (and aren’t supposed to!) – and that the learning part is the fun part.
