The focus of a learning expedition is the cultivation of skills, perspectives and personal development. Paddles & Pedagogy is for faculty. This 8-day field school is for you. Led by award-winning experiential educator Dr. Carrie Nolan, you will paddle, camp and have class sessions together to increase your understanding of the theory and practice of experiential place based learning & leading (EPBLL).
