About this Book:

From the series foreword by Jessie L. Moore and Peter Felten:

Learning on Location invites readers to reconsider the significant role place can play in higher education learning. . . . where students learn matters. Critical attention to place enables students not only to connect to particular classrooms (sometimes online ones) but also to engage meaningfully with the people, economic and political systesm, histories, and ecosystems that surround them in their daily lives. . . . In this book, Ashley J. Holmes offers a definition of learning on location, explores how faculty can leverage location to foster student learning, and offers rich examples of learning on location pedagogies-in-action. Examples stem from multiple disciplines and institutions, encouraging readers to consider how they might adapt their own course pedagogies to be place conscious.”
