Well apart from a few remarks about the colour of the logo most of you seemed to prefer the green on white back round. We are going to run with that choice for now. Away to Wales now, to do a permaculture teaching course for eight days and really looking forward to it. Check it out here
So probably wont be as many posts here for the next week or two as I am not sure about the internet status.....In truth It will be a great break from all things digital and IT related. Plus the chance to hang out with like minded people and so on......I cannot wait!
This is a bit of information copied and pasted from their site.
The world is waking up to climate change and other effects of unsustainable growth. We know permaculture has answers, so if you've ever wanted to inspire others but haven't had the confidence this course is for you. This course is suitable for all abilities: both apprentice & experienced teachers & also for those who have just completed their Permaculture Design course (PDC). During the course we will be focusing on the tools & techniques for teaching & facilitating permaculture learning & the practicalities of convening & running courses. We won't be revisiting the topics on a PDC in any depth and so it is recommended that if your permaculture knowledge is a bit rusty that you do some preparatory background reading before the course.
The ToT will concentrate on permaculture training but the techniques covered can be applied to any other subject and hence the course would be valuable for any teacher wanting to expand their creative teaching techniques. The course will be lively and interactive on all levels using plenty of diversity in teaching styles. We intend to use the course as a working example of how much can be achieved in a 6 day course using accelerated learning techniques. We will be looking at the whole process of running a course – from finding a venue & course publicity to evaluation & follow up.
