NESA Accredited: Children in their community: place-based pedagogy
In this workshop we examine children’s identity, of belonging to place, enacting citizenship rights and responsibilities. Place-based pedagogy creates opportunities to become deeply immersed in experiencing the world around us. Learning in these moments is both organic and visceral as there is much to learn from the places we inhabit. In ‘place’ we learn about ourselves, our capacities, and responsibilities.
