Learning in Places

The University of Washington Bothelll Goodlad Institute, Northwestern University, Tilth Alliance and Seattle Public Schools are partnering to  create more culturally and community relevant, field-based learning opportunities for students. Funded by a $2.9 million grant from the National Science Foundation, the project will build outdoor learning gardens and draw upon local communities and green spaces at several Seattle schools while developing a robust curriculum for K-3 educators to engage students in complex ecological reasoning and decision-making.
