The linguistic interaction with nature
This learning scenario deals with the fact that our language often creates a distanced view of the environment. Cultural perspectives are important for understanding scientific results and deriving courses of action. Artistic practices promote creative, critical thinking and help foster a respectful relationship with the environment. This learning scenario is intended to stimulate critical reflection on the linguistic interaction with nature and create a sense of shared responsibility.
