Découvrons l’éducation buissonnière | Roland Gérard | TEDxTours


good evening very happy to be in towers
tonight in this city guaranteeing a
living loire and if it was a
education issue
environmental education education
nature education development
sustainable transition education
ecological
there are many ways to name it
this education that was born there is a
sixty years
but the point is always the same
it’s about learning a new way
to inhabit the land and for that we have all
the way to go
albert einstein said the knowledge
comes from experience
Everything else is just information
so I’m going to invite you to live two
experiences for the first time I
brought a feather education to
the environment
she makes live experiences of
nature and social experiences
it’s worse was still hanging
to his bird not long ago in
sky and she fell and falling
obviously like everything falls it
made noise
listen
you may have heard all the
world did not hear that it’s not
necessarily a question of competence
there was some noise is
start again second try
this form of yesteryear listen well all
together this is everyone this time
heard or almost
we did this experiment because the
listening is at the heart of education to
the environment listen to nature
obviously but also listened to
others and a self-listening now
attention second experience a little
more difficult I invite you to do
the knowledge of the person to
next to you or behind or in front of you
that you do not know you have 20
seconds to swap your name
say where did you come from or what did you
want twenty seconds top chrono
thank you thank you for playing the game thank you
a lot of playing the 2 thank you
play so well the top game
the eba seconds its past and ensures you
you can end up at the exit
thank you
why did we do this second
experience for two reasons the
first is that also in the heart of
education the environment is found
do it together and before you do
together we must exchange and before
to exchange must meet
the second reason is that
environmental education likes
match the gesture
and speech
the question of consistency I’m doing this
what I say I say what I actually do
for me this adventure of education
to the environment
she started in 79 I was 24 years old I
was looking for my voice is the word that
came back it was nature nature nature
and lucky to fall on this
job of nature facilitator and for
start in this way he was
proposed to pass the bafa the patent
aptitude for the functions of animator and
fights face I’m going to spend a few
kilometers from here in Chinon Forest and
right away it was a
revelation
because we were outside because
we lived the project pedagogy
because I was with passionate people
of nature and then it was spring
the pleasure was every moment
in learning, benevolence
arts for others was a
obvious for me right now
made sense I had found my way in
did I ignore it completely but
I had a single baggage high at the
campaign I had lived a lot
of nature experiences I’m going
ran the woods you ran the
ready I had built huts
I was riding in the trees of
hundreds of times I spent hours
and hours in jars and then
I was fishing but often I
played the spear stone and not bad
birds are paid for and there are
had the episode of the tawny owl
I was 12-13 years old she was in full
day on a branch of apple trees
I was twenty meters away
I hesitated and then I pulled and she
fell and ran to the
apple tree and I took in hand and there
I immediately felt that
I did something that I did not
not to do
I had destroyed the game ran beauty
to the house showed it to my mother
and tell him does not tell anyone
I had a terrible ride yes
I had a lot of experience of nature
but I was left to myself
I was left to ignorance and
prejudice
stroke of luck
my brother was three years older than
me put in my hands the peterson
the peterson is the guide of
ornithologists and I swapped the spear
stones against binoculars and the
knowledge has come to replace even
ignoring
very soon after this internship I did some
Dozens of school trips class
sea ​​of mountain class I made the
Discovery vacation rooms from
nature
I trained animators but this
times as a trainer or or
director and very quickly I realized
account that this education to
the environment
she was walking on two legs she
walks on the leg of the relationship between
nature and she walks on the leg of
citizen participation
the relationship between nature often in
green classes
a teacher a system for them
children leave with a notebook a pencil
children found themselves in the
paths with a notebook a pencil and then
I ‘m pouting myself
leaves sell the pebble and very quickly
children down some note
maybe two or three things but the
notebooks was quickly forgotten and the
right were given to the hands of
touched 2 touched what’s around
of touchdowns 2 touched and to hear and
to open your eyes and also to feel and
also to taste and also to taste
to be in contact with nature at
contact with nature that is to
the connection or just do it
because a lot of people do not have
this chance to know nature
very early and that ‘s going to take us
very quickly to wonder at the
contemplation and its quiet door and one
feels good and it’s all the more
important today that researchers
Americans have updated this idea
of lack of nature syndrome yes
when we are lacking in nature when we
we miss nature when we miss
of this bath of nature we come to have
what is called lack syndrome
of nature and diseases such as
myopia obesity hyperactivity the
depression can be limited by
frequent attendance at nature
I advocate the sensory approach
since it counts first
to be before you know it does not
to say that I disqualify the approach
scientist or the approached
intellectual
not at all since when we will see
very quickly we will observe
very quickly we will describe and then we will
name then we will try to understand
mechanisms relations between
plants animals
we’re going to be in the short in the lesson
of ecology 7 the show this lesson
of ecology that tells us the cases of
great principles that everyone
know here I imagine we were worth
remember a game comes from the is all
comes from energy we are
dust of the canvases and life is
mainly a circulation
information and energy 2
diversity is wealth more we
has more animal species
plant species present on a
middle and then this environment and productive
is stable see the rainforests
where estuaries 3
nature does not make waste the
ins releases and the resource of
the other 4 and maybe it’s the most
important
we all depend on each other
we have living things that
to have a common destiny and that’s the
principle of interdependence if it is
good to feel good in nature at
sensory and intellectual point of view
it is also good to feel in phase
with spinoza when he says we can not
remain inactive if one is threatened with
destruction
yes threatened with destruction the year
2016 was the hottest since
makes weather reports one of the 17
will probably be hotter than
the year 16 the species disappear
pollution increases
worry is growing it is urgent
to act
the second great discovery that I have
done in this internship it was the
active pedagogies
this is learning in life
it’s the decroly vacuum they said
the school must be everywhere where is the
nature everywhere and life wherever
she works we live doing and we
done in life and we learn in the
life making gold is simple we are
a little bit of talk
we go outside we face the
reality
we work in small groups it’s
like that we learn to do
together we call on all
disciplines it’s interdisciplinary
of course we are in the pedagogy of
project we learn by doing a lot of
creativity together creativity
collective
we learn to practice the debate on
learn to work with people
of different ages we learn to come
advice to make decisions
collective to respect them all
ways of learning it’s
pedagogical that come from the twentieth
century for the most part we know
montessori we know steiner on
knows freinet and there are many
other
they were a real treasure
throughout the twentieth century and this
treasure was not actually
used today the human species
needs innovation
she needs people who have
confidence in it the human species has
need of people who take
initiatives
and here I think of this example you
probably know this young
dutch at 16 he bathes in
the mediterranean the funds are
beautiful he is amazed and they
meet a lot of plastic and that
he does not like it much at 17
the year after he conceived a
process for removing plastics
oceans four years later
he had raised $ 2 million
thanks to a holding crouch that has
mobilized thirty thousand people from 160
country we are many to dream our
plastic sessions
I speak of boyan because he is very
young when he takes this direction is
this direction that he took important
in her life she is important to him
certainly, but it is also important
for us fault and think about it and I think
to his children from 9-10 years old 12 years old who
love the nature that loves the land that
love peace who love plants
who loves animals these kids who have
dreams in the mind in the head
if we give them a good pedagogy
adapted they will know they will be by
themselves act undertake with the
others in a spirit of responsibility
they have gained autonomy they will be
socialize efforts in the expression of
their creativity
these are the active pedagogies this
it brings
and it is very necessary today
the territories it’s important to
bet on youth and give to the
youth the opportunity to live
experiences very early experiences
think not knowledge think
experience and there in the territories
you all know certainly
examples you know canteens
organic
these are people who took the
decision to act so that in
the canteen of their children this is
organic products and that’s how it is
that it starts we start with 10%
20% whatever it goes on after and
we can arrive at 100% we have
collective composts
we have shared gardens
we have local currencies and all that
are ways to go to the
ecological transition
it’s all good for the planet
today we have already proved
some things we human species
I’m wearing it just three examples and the
first try and this peregrine falcon you
you may recognize and who
had almost disappeared from the skies of
sky of France completely disappeared from
belgian sky in the 70’s
that year 2017
in brussels there are twelve couples
who are struggling to reproduce one can
Besides, see them every day
just click on the internet
it’s a permanent show in 90 it remained
14 species of fish in the Seine
he has only 30 today
remember the 2000s
the anxiety for the ozone layer
now it’s pretty much
christmas reconstructing
it should be done in the years
50 we know how to rectify today
the situation is very serious
probably more serious than all
those I mentioned but the capacity
of the human species to take
decisions and to organize
she is very happy with 6 so seven
changes she has before us the
change of self change of
organizations the change of
territories one can play on the three
paintings after all why not and
to exchange by doing and there we have
a great ally and this great ally
it’s beauty
remember the owl I
missed five years is beauty and the
g3 good news the first is
that finally humans have something
to do together and there it is not
to build a great nation in
opposition to other great nations
no it’s about finding the big ones
ecological balances
I agree we have some for a few
second good new years
these little rivers of education to
the environment that some of them
will perhaps have not yet seen
for 40 years she’s been flowing she’s
joined at this moment by another
bigger tumultuous river it’s
the river the new pr educational this
educational revival he finally live in this
moment in the establishments in the
territories by in the same countries
koopmans finland have relied on
new values ​​like trust the
trust given to children the
trust given to teachers and that
change everything and we advance our
opportunity today for this
change
probably it’s the opening and the
encounter after that makes its way to
me this is the first meeting
the opening after but I had on his
way our shared word is the
better path to intelligence
collective then multiply the
meetings we spies long exchanges
generating projects
listen to those who are in the act
those who are in action we already have
civil society that has made
environmental education networks
who made collectives to create
with its partners in the state of
corporate communities
spaces of consultation for a
environmental issue
there is the great movement of the assizes of
environmental education that is
an international movement and all the
world can sit down in his
neighborhood in his city in his
department
it is enough to approach the car wagon the
train left since 2000
and maintenance he is fourth to 6
already they are international
we have the opportunity to change
we can open ourselves to those who make their
give voice
they have something to tell us and
we are sure it’s clear
we have something to do thanks
