DCAL (Baker 102)
Intended Audience(s): Faculty, Postdoc, Staff, Students-Graduate

Registration required.

Dartmouth's location in the Upper Valley and access to surrounding mountains, rivers, and forests offer a unique opportunity for teaching and learning outdoors. Outdoor experiences can be enriching ways to engage students, promote wellbeing, and deepen learning. However, they also introduce unique considerations for instructors and students alike. In this session, the Outdoor Programs Office's Katie Colleran and Dan Pfistner Krahn will guide instructors in exploring key factors to consider when planning outdoor learning experiences. 

This session will convene in DCAL (Baker 102) and, weather permitting, move outdoors (specifically, to the grass outside Baker Library). Sun protection, comfortable footwear, and an extra layer are recommended. Please notify us when registering of any accessibility needs or considerations. Lunch will be provided.

Please register!
