Safety Science for Outdoor & Experiential Education - Paperback
Description
by Steve Smith (Author)
What can outdoor & experiential education programs learn from firefighters, astronauts, or emergency room doctors? In the past century, safety researchers have discovered many strategies that should inform how we think about risk management in outdoor and experiential education. To build quality, efficiency, and resiliency, we must understand and embrace how different industries operate in complex, hazardous environments.
Safety Science embraces research to help us build a better approach to risk management. This book - unique in our field - distills the last century of safety science into a coherent and engaging story, and then applies those concepts to outdoor and experiential education programs with an eye to the future. Using case studies, personal stories, models, and targeted questions, this book takes readers on a journey through the past to better understand our present, and envision the future.
