Learning about Outdoor Education through Authentic Activity
Moffett, Pamela
Mathematics Teaching, n227 p12-14 Mar 2012
The potential, for the learner, of a maths trail was documented in MT219. Here, the focus is on the planning element of such an event from the perspective of a group of student teachers. Personal reactions, and insights are used to demonstrate that "real, and authentic, learning" takes place for all those involved in the activity.
