Thank you to the incredible Rachel Rafferty, who took time out of her busy schedule to engage with our second-year BSc Education and Training degree students DCU Institute of Education. The session focused on the influential factors shaping positive learning environments. As our second-year 1/4
environments, while effectively managing behaviour. A wonderful talk which I hope the students will benefit from and bring with them into their placements and educational practices. @dcu School of Policy and Practice: DCU IOE FETRC Further Education & Training Research Centre #OutdoorLearning #Education #PositiveLearningEnviornments #Creativity

7 years after my own erasmus, I'm back in the city and with the people that inspired and taught me so much about Norwegian Friluftsliv and Outdoor Learning. What a pleasure to bring 10 PE specialism students here for a week of Outdoor Education Erasmus+ DCU Institute of Education School AEM
It was so special presenting my research to the lectures that taught me all those years ago! In 2017 I spent 6 months studying and practicing Norwegian Friluftsliv (outdoor life) on #erasmus. This was transformative for my teaching and inspired my research DCU Institute of Education Universitetet i Stavanger
