ALTERNATIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS

While looking at ESD principles in regards to the Module 5.
i also looked out for information on learning environments.

Steiner or Waldorf schools follow an educational and child development belief in Anthrosophy.

The architecture of steiner schools is interesting as it follows on fromn the educational philosophy .

another thing to look at is engaging the child and class in a range of activities in order to provide laerning opportunities. this is one such program. tho not appropriate for the Module 5, i thought i'd keep it in mind for the later projects.
