Online course: Teaching and learning in school gardens

Teaching and Learning in the School Garden: Theory into Practice is an online course that focuses on the foundations and teaching strategies of garden-based learning (GBL), and provides the tools and resources that classroom teachers and extension educators need to develop school gardening programs that integrate into the school curriculum.

The class runs from September 26 to November 30, 2011, and will be taught by Donna Alese Cooke, Community Educator with Cornell Cooperative Extension-Rockland County.
