Reflections on the Prairie as a Creative Teaching-Learning Place

Sandra Schmidt Bunkers, RN, PhD, FAAN

College of Nursing, South Dakota State University, Brookings, South Dakota

In this column, the author reflects on characteristics of the prairie land of South Dakota and how it contributes to a creative teaching-learning place. Attributes of the prairie that are linked with creative teaching-learning include prairie as a space of aloneness and solitude, prairie as a boundless seeing what may be, prairie as contradiction and paradox, and prairie as possibility. These attributes of the prairie are explored through the author's personal experience, theoretical literature on creativity and teaching-learning, and literature from Parse's theory of human becoming.

Key Words: creative teaching-learning • human becoming • prairie
