    Abstracts from the for in the Coalition Education Outdoors Ninth Biennial Research Symposium _______________________________________________________________________________________ Held at Indiana University’s Outdoor Center Martinsville, Indiana January 11-13, 2008 Compiled by Anderson B. Young, SUNY Cortland Jim Sibthorp, University of Utah Coalition for Education in the Outdoors State University of New York at Cortland P.O. Box 2000 Cortland, New York 13045 Copyright ©2008 CEO Preface The Coalition for Education in the Outdoors (CEO) is a network of organizations, businesses, institutions, centers, agencies, and associations linked and communicating in support of the broad purpose of education in, for, and about the outdoors. The Coalition was established in 1987 at the State University of New York at Cortland by a group of outdoor educators from around the country. The purpose of the Coalition is to identify the networking and information needs of its affiliates and the field of outdoor education and, insofar as is financially practical, to meet those needs. Through its publication Taproot, CEO presents a broad view of education in the outdoors and a means for outdoor educators to stay abreast of developments in the field, especially those outside their primary interest area. In this way, CEO does not duplicate the work of other organizations, but provides readers with access to that work. The founders of CEO envisioned that it could play an important role in addressing the research needs of the field. In its early years, CEO formed a research committee, which led to the organization of these biennial research symposia and the refereed publication now known as Research in Outdoor Education.

Ignoring it, I settled back with the morning paper when the doorbell rang. I hobbled on crutches across the living room floor and peeked through the window. Parked outside was a full-sized black Mercedes, definitely the first of its kind to grace the curb in front of our humble Cape Cod in Queens. Unfastening the chain safety lock, I opened the door. On the stoop stood a stately woman dressed in black leather. She was looking back toward the Mercedes where an imposing dark- haired man, wearing a long wool coat, stood with his arms folded high on his chest. I had no idea who this woman was, or what she wanted. In one arm she clutched a colorful tote bag.

  • Exploration and Conservation: Uniting Outdoor Recreation and Environmentalism Through
    Exploration and Conservation: Uniting Outdoor Recreation and Environmentalism Through Rock Climbing Alex Houston Summary: My collection focuses on the broader topic of exploration, delving into the specific niches of rock climbing, endurance, and the important environmental ethics that underpin the topic. I began collecting many of these books as a child, staying up late reading tales of adventure on the tallest mountains, distant continents, and the ocean. I never comprehended that one-day I would go on my own expeditions into distant lands, collecting more books along the way. Essay: The American West has long held a place in our country’s collective imagination. Tales of exploration, heroism, and adventure permeate every corner of the vast region, from the arid floor of the Grand Canyon to the snowcapped peaks of the Sierra Nevada. While stories of cowboys and pioneers have faded since their heyday, the rebel spirit of the West is still alive and well in the sport of rock climbing. Once a fringe sport, existing on the farthest periphery of society, rock climbing is currently marching towards the mainstream. Indoor gyms continue to spring up at an unprecedented rate across the country. Even in the flatlands of Midwest, one only has to travel to 40 minutes from Lawrence to Kansas City to find 5 different climbing gyms to choose from. As rock climbing gains popularity and notoriety, how will a sport born of the “rucksack revolution” described by Kerouac and his fellow beatniks assimilate into the suburbia it was created to reject? While esoteric questions about the future of an obscure sport may seem frivolous to most, to an addicted outdoorsman and climber like myself, they are what keep me up at night.

Since 2006, Joe has made 100+ mile traverses through Alaska’s Chugach, Neacola and Tordrillo Mountains – all involving more than 20,000 feet of vertical respectively – and has skied off the summit of Mount Chamberlain, the highest mountain in the Alaskan Arctic.

The perceptions are introduced and elaborated through interviews with nine Master students from September 2013 till June 2014. One by one, the qualitative data is phenomenologically analyzed and interpretations of the findings are demonstrated to the reader. At the end of this study, five different themes, which have been obtained during this study, are presented. These themes are: the benefits of outdoor education; the practicality of outdoor education, the effects of outdoor education and issues within outdoor education. I argue how perspectives of international students vary depending on their culture. Nyckelord Keywords Outdoor education, International perceptions, Concept, Phenomenology, Postgraduate students, Cultural phenomena, Definition Acknowledgments First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my classmates Emily, Theodora C, Nikki, John, Ana, Aristea, Georgios, Raquel, Theodora D, Rafaela for granting their time to me to allow them to be interviewed for this research paper and for sharing an amazing time on all our field trips together.
