There has to be a good reason for the change because it is difficult. Usually, change is reactive.
A scarcity attitude is one of the main obstacles I hear from educators who are reluctant to switch to an outdoor teaching paradigm.
- Not Enough Time
- Why does it lack?
- The response from the students
- The anticipation of out-of-control behavior
- Absence of relevance to the curriculum
During a strategy session for an Outdoor Classroom, I asked a group of educators, "What is changing in your environment?" and their responses were insightful:
"The mental health of our students is evolving. Youngsters worry about the world we are leaving behind. There is an increase in our students who are experiencing depression, obesity, and attention deficit disorder."
Hearing directly from the front-line educators was incredibly insightful and true. In this episode, we recognize these shifts, marking the first step in the Outdoor Classrooms Readiness for Change Model.
