Discovery Education: A Definition.
Wilson, Harold C.
Horizons, n19 p25-29 Aut 2002
Discovery Education is based on the writings of Henry David Thoreau, an early champion of experiential learning. After 2 months of preparation, 10th-grade students spent 4 days in the wilderness reenacting a piece of history, such as the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The interdisciplinary approach always included journal-writing. Students gained psychological, sociological, educational, and physical benefits. (TD)
