本文通过与自然和场所的身体接触,以及与实物的互动来探索年轻人的户外教育体验。许多户外教育的学术参与都是以结果为导向的研究形式,地理学家还没有真正探索户外教育的社会和物理空间。我借鉴了最近户外教育研究的文献,其中提出了以下问题:首先,户外教育中明显缺乏对基于地点和体现的认知方式的关注;第二,在户外教育实践中不加批判地采用技术和物质。然后,本文涉及身体和空间的地理工作,并使用与外展拓展信托基金进行的原始研究,考虑了在年轻人对户外教育的描述中,具体的经验是如何被重视的。我展示了他们如何通过与地点和技术的身体互动,通过他们的身体制定个人代理。最后,讨论提请注意一些结构约束和权力关系,限制年轻人的身体在户外教育空间。
This paper explores young people's experiences of outdoor education through bodily encounters with nature and place, and interactions with material objects. Much academic engagement with outdoor education has taken the form of outcome orientated studies, and geographers have yet to truly explore the social and physical spaces of outdoor education. I draw on literature from recent outdoor education research which questions: first, the apparent lack of attention to place‐based and embodied ways of knowing in outdoor education; and second an uncritical adoption of technology and materiality in outdoor education practices. The article then engages with geographical work on the body and space, and, using original research conducted with the Outward Bound Trust, considers how embodied experiences in place are foregrounded in young people's accounts of outdoor education. I show how, through their corporeal interactions with place and technology, they enact individual agency through their bodies. Finally the discussion draws attention to some of the structural constraints and power relations that restrict young peoples’ bodies in outdoor educational spaces.
