This book addresses student passivity in teacher education. Using a
developed metaphor, the author critically examines the use of authentic
learning to design and implement learning experiences for preservice
teachers, and reveals the opportunities and limitations of a focus on
authenticity.
This book prepares teachers for outdoor education using practice-based
exemplars of applied teaching theories. Focusing on authentic
pedagogies, it applies to all teacher educators who seek to engage in
high-impact learning for their students, and is relevant for in-service
educators, preservice teachers and researchers in the field of
self-study.
