EE for English Language Learners

Mon, 2019-03-11 20:14

Hi, everyone! My name is Yarrow, and I currently provide garden-based workshops to the refugee community in Georgia. I'm wondering if anyone has any resources to recommend on the intersections between Environmental Education and English Language Learners/English as a Second Language. Thank you!

Natasha Blanchet Cohen wrote a very thoughtful article on working with refugees in an EE context in Canada: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13504622.2016.1153046.

I am also in the process of reviewing photovoice literature as it intersects with teaching and am finding a lot of interesting articles that relate to refugee populations.

If you email me at vderr@csumb.edu, I can send you some more references, and not sure if you have access to academic publications.
