The concept, however, did not gain momentum until much later. It started to grow in popularity in the 1980s, according to the executive director of the National Association for Year-Round Education and superintendent of Holt Public Schools in Michigan,...

A nice calm close to the beach and a forest environment is a place you would only think exists in movies. But somehow I'm in luck because that sounds like the campus of UC Santa Cruz.

My sister and brother walk the same route in order to minimize congestion and chaos at drop off. At any given moment, an irritated or...

They seem to be remiss in acknowledging a crucial concept: attending four-year colleges may not be for everyone. Some...

Our environment speaks to us. The space we live and work in has vibes that affect our functioning as individuals. “Buildings are not simply visual objects. Buildings speak - and on topics which can readily be discerned. They speak of democracy or aristocracy, openness or arrogance, welcome or threat, a sympathy for the future or harkening of the past” (De Botton 2006, as cited in, The semiotics of entering: beauty, empathy and belonging in Reggio Emilia, pp. 208-209).

This activity turned into a project about empowering each individual to share a story and feelings about oneself. The mentees and mentors also had the opportunity to learn more about each other and plan a one-on-one get-together outside...
