Adventure in the Classroom
by Mary Henton
In this book, Mary
Henton has distilled the essence of what Adventure is and how it works.
Mary shows how the very core concepts of Adventure, from the Full Value
Contract to Adventure activities to Challenge By Choice, can be used
to create a classroom climate where learning is perceived as a life-long
activity. The book discusses and then demonstrates how teachers can use
Adventure techniques to integrate academic curriculum with the often
unspoken social curriculum; how processing can and should be used to
help students transfer learning from one situation to another and how
integrating curriculum and using activity-based projects help students
learn more meaningfully by discovering material in natural contexts. |
