Research has identified multiple benefits of nature-based learning (NBL) for students such as increased engagement, reduced stress, greater student well-being, reduced inattention and impulsivity, higher academic achievement, and increased concentration. While the benefits of nature-based learning is a rapidly growing area of research, the focus has primarily been with early childhood to high school age students. Can NBL also impact student learning in higher education? Based on three preliminary case studies conducted by Dr. Nicole Kras (Guttman Community College), the findings are promising. This 90-minute workshop will provide you with an overview of nature-based learning and the research behind the identified benefits presented by Dr. Catherine Jordan, a pediatric neuropsychologist by training, and a Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Kras will then share her initial work that has been done with CUNY students. The first half of the workshop will provide you with foundational knowledge for a CUNY-wide brainstorming discussion on how NBL can be incorporated and assessed across disciplines in higher education.
