This blog was created to explore the value and validity of place-based education. Place-based education has few documented disadvantages, yet its acceptance remains mired in a lack of funding, the subjectivity of place, and a lack of community support, resources, and time. What happens to place-based education when a place is byword for failure?
Please use this site to explore the advantages and disadvantages of place-based education.
After reading the critical issues paper Place-Based Education: The transformative power of place-based education and the influence of learning within the context of communities, please proceed to the tab named: Place-based Education: Think About it! and complete the activity. Further instructions will be given at the end of that page.
Thank you!
