Earth User's Guide to Teaching Permaculture by Rosemary Morrow

Permaculture Design is a powerful tool for creating systems that meet our human needs but also support the ecosystem as a whole. The standard 72 hour Permaculture Design course (PDC) is taught all over the world. Rosemary Morrow offers evidence for permaculture's effectiveness and describes each unit of the PDC's curriculum. This fully revised and updated edition contains a wealth of technical information for teaching permaculture design and includes new findings in emerging disciplines such as regenerative agriculture. The Earth User's Guide to Permaculture Teacher's Notes is of key relevance to teachers and students of architecture, landscape design, ecology and other disciplines like geography. It leads the reader step-by-step through a recommended course structure, providing a flexible approach which encourages the adaptation of the materials for specific bioregional and cultural conditions. With advice on teaching aids, topic for class discussion, extensive reading lists, this book is bound to be an invaluable friend to the experienced and novice teacher alike.
Even after teaching permaculture for over a decade, I still found plenty of useful information and tips hereIt is packed full of interesting technical details, which as well as being valuable in themselves, serve as thorough reminders of what to include. This is balanced with suggestions on different ways of teaching. She provides us with questions to ask our students that are thought provoking and encourage personal connection and insights. Looby Macnamara, permaculture teacher and author of People and Permaculture
