Review # 1 was written on 2009-06-17 00:00:00 Terrence Tanner The essays in this book come from professors at universities across the U.S., and they range from giving advice/sharing stories about what worked in their classrooms to more personal meditations on teaching, place, and the academic vocation. Beautifully designed, with each chapter only about 10-15 pages, this book was easy to read and is useful to anyone looking to incorporate more place-based pedagogy into their teaching.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-06-11 00:00:00 Stewart Johnston I liked this interesting collection of essays written by teachers from all over who attempt to instill their students with a greater understanding of the world around them. If you are interested in the natural world or alternative educational methods (ideally both), then this book would probably speak to you, too.
