OEEDU3802 Education in Alpine Environments
This unit provides a capstone educational experience for outdoor education students. Situated within the Australian alps, they will explore the aesthetic and ecological aspects of landscape, learning strategies for confronting sustainability issues and developing affirmative environmental relations. Through a blend of academic and experiential inquiry, students will identify and implement pedagogical strategies for facilitating learning experiences that explore the interrelated aspects of Alpine environments. As part of this, students will participate in fieldwork within the Australian Alps, developing technical expertise in snow camping, ski-touring and/or snow shoeing and increasing interpretive and experiential knowledge.
