Learning in Cultivated Gardens and Other Outdoor Landscapes

Year: 2015

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Much has been written on childhood experiences of gardens as places in which physical and imaginary experiences converge (e.g. Pollan, 1991). Similarly, recent research has examined the capacity of gardens and school grounds to provide artefacts and spaces for children to assimilate into imagined worlds (e.g. Malone & Tranter, 2003; Dowdell et al., 2011). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
