UEE Students Experience the “Interconnectedness of Nature” at Islandwood

Rasheena Fountain and Tiffany Adams, Antioch University Seattle students in our MA in Education with Urban Environmental Education (UEE) program, recently collaborated on a story about their experiences at Islandwood. Fountain’s words and Tiffany’s photographs paint a picture:

“There we were: three people of color trekking through what looked to be an enchanted forest, welcoming us with assortment of tree branches covered in moss and carved paths. To get here, we had traveled our own long paths both literally and figuratively. My daughter and I are from Chicago and Tiffany from New York City. Yet, through our love of nature and educating others about the environment, Tiffany and I found ourselves gleefully charging through IslandWood’s beautiful campus, having just begun our journey in the Urban Environmental Education Masters program.”

In telling the story of their day, Fountain also adds information about how it can feel to be a student in AUS’s UEE program. “In our classes and in our practicums, we have searched for ways to explore the interconnectedness of nature everywhere. It is a concept that has opened my eyes to differing ways of teaching students about nature.”

Read all of Rasheena’s experience at Islandwood.

Antioch University Seattle offers our MA in Education with Urban Environmental Education (UEE) in partnership with Islandwood. This ground-breaking master’s program addresses the theory and practice of urban environmental education, urban ecology, and community action and stewardship, and encourages diversity in the field of environmental education.
