Guiding Principles
The adventure learning framework includes nine principles (Fig. 1):
- the identification of an issue and respective location of exploration
- a researched curriculum grounded in problem-solving that guides the progression and evolution of the AL program
- collaboration and interaction opportunities between students, experts, peers, explorers, and content
- education that is adventure-based
- exploration of the issue, environment, local population, culture, and additional relevant factors that provide an authentic narrative for students and teachers to follow
- design and utilization of an Internet-driven learning environment for curricular organization, collaboration, and media delivery
- enhancement of the curriculum with media (e.g., photos, video, audio, etc.) and text delivered from the field in a timely manner
- synched learning opportunities with the AL curriculum and online learning environment
- pedagogical integration guidelines and strategies for the curriculum and online learning environment

Famous quotes related to guiding principles:
“For the child whose impulsiveness is indulged, who retains his primitive-discharge mechanisms, is not only an ill-behaved child but a child whose intellectual development is slowed down. No matter how well he is endowed intellectually, if direct action and immediate gratification are the guiding principles of his behavior, there will be less incentive to develop the higher mental processes, to reason, to employ the imagination creatively. . . .”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
