How do educators better reach their students, better capture their attention and imagination without sacrificing scholarship? Teachable Moments: Essays on Experiential Education examines the pedagogy of Prescott College, a school that has embraced experiential education and been finding success with it for over thirty years. These essays-from scholars in fields as wide ranging as religious studies, environmental science, psychology, dance, literature, adventure education, and peace studies-examine the challenges and, ultimately, the rewards of student-centered education.
