Amy Sprowles and Matt Johnson on episode 342 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.

Quotes from the episode

We became much more aware and knowledgeable about what place-based learning means to other people and other groups.
-Amy Sprowles

-Matt Johnson

You cannot talk about the place without talking about the Indigenous people that have been there since time immemorial.
