The best of both worlds: a critical pedagogy of place

Gruenewald1, David A.·2008·Environmental Education Research

Abstract

Taking the position that “critical pedagogy” and “place‐based education” are mutually supportive educational traditions, this author argues for a conscious synthesis that blends the two discourses into a critical pedagogy of place. An analysis of critical pedagogy is presented that emphasizes the spatial aspects of social experience. This examination also asserts the general absence of ecological thinking demonstrated in critical social analysis concerned exclusively with human relationships. Next, a discussion of ecological place‐based education is offered. Finally, a critical pedagogy of place is defined. This pedagogy seeks the twin objectives of decolonization and “reinhabitation” through synthesizing critical and place‐based approaches. A critical pedagogy of place challenges all educators to reflect on the relationship between the kind of education they pursue and the kind of places we inhabit and leave behind for future generations.“Place + people = politics.”—Williams (2001 Williams, T., 2001. Red: Passion and patience in the desert. New York: Pantheon Books; 2001. [Google Scholar], p. 3)

  • The combination of critical pedagogy and place-based education is an attempt to rectify neglect of the social underpinnings of what constitutes environment.

    “To some extent, the combination of critical pedagogy and place-based education (e.g.Gruenewald 2008) is an attempt to rectify neglect of the social underpinnings of what constitutes environment.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
