Forest Educator Spotlight: Getting Our Students 'On the Bus' with Ricardo Sierra Forest Educator with Ricardo Sierra | A Podcast for Revolutionary Conversations about Nature-Based Education

One of the very first challenges educators have today is finding a way to connect with students, and then inspiring them to engage with the activities and experiences offered because THEY want to, not because they HAVE to.  

Without that key ingredient, we can't really go anywhere.  Full stop.  

If you have experienced difficulty with this, you will know exactly what a problem it is, and how excruciating it is to be in it, for everyone involved. 

Sometimes, we get lucky and don't have this kind of issue in our educational journey, with supportive, excited children and attractive games that get the job done.  It can be a big shock when we show up and it DOESN'T go as planned.

With student anxiety, classroom disruption and class attention spans bordering on milliseconds, it's a given that we need a variety of approaches that can give us options when we start getting resistance or blank stares.

In this episode, we take a comprehensive look at one of my favorite tools in this process, and discover some of the ways we can get better immediately, to the benefit of all.
