We are heading outside the classroom walls for Episode 9 of The Learning Curve. Joining us are School of Education experts Dr Elizabeth Curtis and Dr Catherine Francis to discuss why outdoor learning is far more than an occasional field trip—it is a fundamental entitlement for learners.
The conversation considers how moving out of the classroom fosters inclusion, connects academic theory to lived experience, and relies on an "enacted" rather than an "implemented" curriculum.
From "twig dancing" in the Botanic Garden to finding the curriculum bubbling up in local cemeteries, this episode challenges educators to break free from the traditional four walls, adopt slow pedagogies, and practice a little professional bravery.
"What is the risk of never venturing outside of the classroom to learn?... Teaching and learning should be about being alive." — Dr Cathy Francis
