The Seattle Times published an article titled “WA House bill would expand outdoor education statewide” and featured  Islandwood Graduate Program in Education and Community students Marina Hydeman, Keaton Aldrich and Grace Sunitsch. Islandwood, an outdoor camp on Bainbridge Island, has demonstrated how outdoor education should be a must-have, rather than a nice-to-have for school districts across the state. Congratulations to our students, as well as faculty and staff involved with the program: Professor of Teaching, Learning and Curriculum Mark Windschitl and Associate Professor of Teaching, Learning and Curriculum Jessica Thompson, and Islandwood Director of Graduate and Higher Education Programming Déana Scipio (Ph.D. in Learning Sciences, ’15).
