In this webinar, presenters will compare the IE quality standards with the principles of Flow Learning. Proposing the basis for a new model of developing interpretation for children and youth and implementing it in a new IE training module.
One of the principles of Heritage Interpretation written by Freeman Tilden is: “Interpretation addressed to children (say up to the age of 12) should not be a dilution of the presentation to adults but should follow a fundamentally different approach. To be at its best it will require a separate program.”
How to captivate, motivate and enthuse children and youth for heritage interpretation is a huge challenge for interpreters working with this age group.
Joseph Cornell, the founder and president of Sharing Nature Worldwide, (https://www.sharingnature.com/), is one of the most revered American nature educators in the world today.
