- Description
- Apprenticeship is an ancient and intuitive approach to learning, yet today traditional forms of apprenticeship are becoming in-creasingly scarce. The role of apprenticeship in relation to learning through embodied, first hand experience is somewhat overlooked, particularly in the the pedagogical development of social learning. Understanding this in my early doctoral re-search, I focused on the process of apprenticeship and its contribution to social learning practice. I moved beyond the concept of traditional apprenticeship (that of learning a specific artisan practice) and explored the possibility of sharpening my capacities as an ‘ecological-citizen’; expanding Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) concepts, and investigating a wider embodied learning of a citizen situated in a greater social-ecological phenomenon.
