Podcast with Lauren MacLean: Outdoor learning for assessment and social-emotional learning

Prepositions matter in this episode, specifically that three-letter word ‘for.’ What is outdoor learning ‘for’ assessment? How can we facilitate outdoor learning ‘for’ social-emotional learning (SEL)? Teacher, writer, podcaster, and regular sit-spot practitioner Lauren MacLean of Teach Outdoors joined us to talk assessment and SEL in the context of learning outdoors. We also got into the weeds regarding British Columbia’s competency-based assessment framework as well as documenting learners’ progress on a continuum.

Join Lauren for the upcoming Social Emotional Learning (SEL) through Outdoor Learning Course!

Discover how to nurture Social Emotional Learning (SEL) through playful, outdoor learning experiences that align with curriculum goals.
