A Potential Understory Flora For Oak Savanna In Iowa, Karl T. Delong, Craig Hooper
A Potential Understory Flora For Oak Savanna In Iowa, Karl T. Delong, Craig Hooper
Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS
Oak savanna occurred in Iowa until the time of settlement and then was degraded rapidly. There were no scientific studies of savanna prior to, or after, settlement, and now no high-quality examples exist within the state. To identify those vascular plants adapted to live in the understory of savanna we examined regional and local flora for species that occurred in both prairie and broken woodland, and for species that occurred m both openings and forest. We then compiled a detailed description of the ecological range of habitats for each of these species. We identified 252 species (39 graminoids, 183 forbs, …

Research in Outdoor Education
The Coalition for Education in the Outdoors initiated a Research Task Force in 1990 with the purpose of supporting the conduct of research in the field and the dissemination of the results. The symposium at Bradford Woods and these proceedings offer evidence of the success of this task force. At the first symposium in 1992, there was general agreement that the symposium be a regular occurrence. The 1994 and 1996 Symposia and these Proceedings are indicators of the Coalition's continued support of research in outdoor education. Information on future events will be available through the Coalition office.

Outdoor Education And Spirituality, Tom Smith
Outdoor Education And Spirituality, Tom Smith
Research in Outdoor Education
The question at hand is that of researching the impact of outdoor recreational and educational experiences on the spiritual development of the individual. I approach that question from the perspective of a facilitator of personal growth who has long advocated the methodologies considered as experiential outdoor/challenge/adventure education.
Outdoor Education And The Schools, Bert Horwood
Outdoor Education And The Schools, Bert Horwood
Research in Outdoor Education
The research reported to gatherings sponsored by the Coalition for Education in the Outdoors has had relatively little connection with school-based outdoor education. In this paper, I will explore the potentially fruitful interface between education in the outdoors and the schools. The exploration is influenced by the uncertainty of our times, and I have organized this report to reflect two views. One is that the social ferment of the mid-1990s is normal and that we can continue to conduct research in the way that Kuhn (1974) characterized as "normal science." The second view is that the social fabric of the …

Responsible Environmental Behavior: Metaphoric Transference Of Minimum-Impact Ideology, J. Porter Hammitt, Wayne A. Freimund
Responsible Environmental Behavior: Metaphoric Transference Of Minimum-Impact Ideology, J. Porter Hammitt, Wayne A. Freimund
Research in Outdoor Education
This abstract represents a thesis research project that studied changes in National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) students' attitudes, intentions, and behavior, as they pertain to the environment, resulting from participation in NOLS' Wind River Wilderness course. It was hypothesized that an increase in these concerns would result from the metaphoric transference of minimum-impact ideology to daily life. Prominent theories from the fields of social psychology and environmental education relating attitudes, intentions, behavior, and other considerations were incorporated into the theoretical framework of the study.
Providing An Authentic Wilderness Experience? Thinking Beyond The Wilderness Act Of 1964, William T. Borrie, Joseph W. Roggenbuck
Providing An Authentic Wilderness Experience? Thinking Beyond The Wilderness Act Of 1964, William T. Borrie, Joseph W. Roggenbuck
Research in Outdoor Education
Six facets of a wilderness experience are suggested (oneness, humility, primitiveness, timelessness, solitude, and care) based on the writings of wilderness philosophers such as Henry David Thoreau and John Muir. In structuring our lessons in wilderness, we could do well to broaden our notion of wilderness be- yond the Wilderness Act.
Ethical Frameworks, Moral Practices And Outdoor Education, Karen M. Fox, Mick Lautt
Ethical Frameworks, Moral Practices And Outdoor Education, Karen M. Fox, Mick Lautt
Research in Outdoor Education
Discoveries and insights from quantum physics and chaos theory help create new metaphors about. ethical frameworks and moral practices in outdoor education. Using concepts such as fractals, fields, and strange attractors, we explore new ways to view research results, scholarly writings, and creative endeavors related to outdoor education. In addition, we evaluate four themes related to the present ethical discourse in outdoor education and sketch new directions for moral practice.

A Research Update Of Adventure Therapy (1992-1995): Challenge Activities And Ropes Courses, Wilderness Expeditions, And Residential Camping Programs, H. Lee Gillis, Donna Thomsen
Research in Outdoor Education
n 1992 a review of research in adventure therapy offered a perspective that utilized work in psychotherapy as a lens to view the current state of the field. From that review, several recommendations were made to gain respect within the field of traditional mental health. This update examines the recommendations made in 1992 and updates them utilizing research that has taken place in adventure therapy and borrowing liberally from suggestions made for enhancing the field of psychotherapy. The article makes the following points. First, the field of adventure therapy must create a collective document that addresses its accomplishments and effectiveness. …

Interactive Behaviors Between Students And Instructors In The Outdoors, Christine Cashel
Research in Outdoor Education
Research investigating the instructional process has been conducted in many settings but is still a young science (Rink, 1985). The relationships between variables that affect the teaching-learning process and student achievement have been studied in contemporary educational research. Few, if any, studies have focused on the interactive behaviors of instructors and students in the outdoor environment.

Research in Outdoor Education
The study analyzed women's employment rates from 62 outdoor organizations to determine women's representation in the outdoor field. Statistical analysis revealed that women were under-represented in outdoor organizations at the executive and management levels using a proportionality standard. Additionally, women reported lower salaries and higher gender-based discrimination occurrences than their male counterparts.

"Kind Of In The Middle": The Gendered Meanings Of The Outdoors For Women Students, Karla A. Henderson, Sherry Winn, Nina S. Roberts
Research in Outdoor Education
The purpose of this study was to examine the links between past, present, and future involvement for females and perceptions about whether the outdoors was perceived as a gendered environment Data were collected using five focus group interviews. Several aspects of grounded theory emerged from this study including aspects of exposure to outdoor opportunities as a child, involvement in the outdoors as a result of an4 resistance to a gendered society, and contradictions between idealized attitudes and the realities of women's involvement in the outdoors.
