This special bonus episode is a short clip from a webinar--Trail Map for Leading Change in Nature-Based Education--that Dr. Rachel Larimore presented inside The Grove.
Leading change within any educational program is tough, but transitioning to nature-based education presents its own unique challenges. In this webinar, Rachel provides a clear roadmap for implementing nature-based education, addressing crucial questions that leaders must consider before guiding their teams on this journey.
The complete presentation explores eight trail markers for leading change, offering detailed guidance on preparing for, understanding why, and executing on a more nature-based approach in your programs.
For educators currently working toward a nature-centered curriculum and seeking to evaluate their progress, the book Evaluating Natureness: Measuring the Quality of Nature-based Classrooms in Pre-K through 3rd Grade serves as an invaluable resource.
