  1. Welcome to EOE 414 Implementation of Outdoor Education Programs: Sustaining Wellbeing through Health, Outdoor and Physical Education (HOPE): Pedagogy in education

  2. Agenda for today Challenging our understanding of the purpose of education The Lived Curriculum and Implications Intention Two Draft Concept of Sustainability Concept of Community Concept of Humility

  3. Sustainability Community Humility What experiences have you had that have shaped your life?

  4. In Leopold’s (1949/1968) eyes: A thing is right when it tends to preserve the integrity of stability and beauty of the biotic community. It is wrong when it tends otherwise. (p. 224-225) “what kind of world are we leaving for our children and grandchildren?” should have been augmented to include also; “and what kind of children and grandchildren are we leaving for our world?”

  5. the phenomenological absence of knowledge-filled experiences that engage and mesh these students in the realities of education for sustainable development continues to be overlooked. community identifies itself by an understood mutuality of interests. But it lives and acts by the common virtues of trust, goodwill, forbearance, self-restraint, compassion, and forgiveness. If it hopes to continue long as a community, it will wish to – and will have to – encourage respect for all its members, human and natural. (Berry, 1993, p.120)

  6. The fact that a Teacher’s word can change a life; that a Political Scientist’s attitude may affect masses, or that an Engineer’s actions can affect the overall planet’s ecosystem ought to cause most people to pause. Understanding the gravity of being professionally skilled is true humility. Being “understanding” and living the “feeling of thankfulness” is its result.

  7. With gratitude comes responsibility. With gratitude comes an integral understanding of sustainability and community. Visser (2008) clarifies that: gratitude is necessary for the functioning of a healthy society, precisely because it reaches into areas of life that the law can neither control or inspire … we have to retrieve now and bring back into the light something that gratitude entails: respect for what is there, love for it (for itself and not for what we can gouge out of it). (p. 360)

  8. Visser (2008) [humility through] gratitude, replacing selfishness, greed, and disregard, will in my opinion have to be called upon to help us surmount the ecological [and social] crisis [injustices] that now threatens our very existence. (p. 360)

  12. it is important to understand the relevance and integral nature of three key conceptual elements … these elements are cohesively linked …. concepts of sustainability, community, and a third; humility, born out of gratitude are the ingredients which collectively provide the foundation for making sense of what … education needs to become.
