During this workshop, we toured Banks County Elementary School in Homer, Georgia. We also heard from Dr. Eric Rubenstein from UGA, who taught about “Experiential Learning.” We ended the day at Jaemor Farms in Alto, Georgia where we learned about their field trip opportunities for kids. Links for the day are listed below.
