Reviews

« While some teacher-educators promote environmental learning in their courses, Veronica Gaylie is unique in going further. She uses a campus garden as the context for learning how to teach. Her choice of a garden is brilliant. Gardens teach us about change, being patient, asking the right questions, encouraging experimentation, and at the end of the day, reflecting on what we've learned. As such, it is an ideal focus for both classroom instruction and the training of classroom teachers. Teacher education is so much the better for her contribution. -- Tim Grant
