Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)
Experiential education incorporates approaches such as service learning, place-based education, and student-centered learning into traditional and nontraditional education settings. Based on my research paper on experiential education’s role in addressing climate change and justice (“Experiential Education: Preparing Our Climate Change Combaters of The Future”), I am also using my experience with service learning at SCRAP Humboldt to further explore how these forms of education can effectively teach social and environmental justice. These approaches provide children and young adults with better toolkits for becoming future leaders and active citizens in our rapidly changing world.
