A group of student teachers, classroom teachers and college faculty spend ten summer days together in a wilderness setting rockclimbing, backpacking and learning to cope with a "foreign environment." This experience is intended to give the participants insight into the "fears and dangers" that lurk in the classroom for many children. This allows the teacher to "learn" through living through the kinds of unfamiliar challenges, frustrations and perhaps even panic that can be the child's experience with new learning demands.
