Abstract This paper proposes some possibilities for thinking with a landscape as a pedagogical concept, inspired by posthuman theory. The idea of thinking with a landscape is enacted in the Australian Alps (AA), concentrating on the contentious environmental dilemma involving introduced horses and their management in this bio-geographical location. The topic of horses is of pedagogical relevance for place-responsive outdoor environmental educators as both a location-specific problem and an example of a troubling issue. The paper has two objectives for employing posthuman thinking. Firstly, it experiments with the alternative methodological possibilities that posthuman theory affords for outdoor environmental education, including new ways of conducting educational research. Secondly, it explores how thinking with a landscape as a pedagogical concept may help open ways of considering the dilemma that horses pose. The pedagogical concept is enacted through some empirical events which sketch human–horse encounters from the AA. These sketches depict some of the pedagogical conversations and discursive pathways that encounters can provoke. Such encounters and conversations are ways of constructing knowledge of the landscape, covering multiple species, perspectives and discursive opportunities. For these reasons, this paper may be of relevance for outdoor environmental educators, those interested in the AA or posthuman theorists.

<p><strong><em>Abstract.</em></strong><em> Organic village is the designation for the urban / rural are developing environmental management where whole communities to manage the environment by planting organic crops. Even they develop dengue mosquito eradication in a way that is natural to plant crops that are not favored by mosquitoes. Referring to the objectives to be achieved, the research program was designed with a "Research and Development", meaning that a program of research followed by development program for repair or improvements. To produce a prototype Organic Village Environmental Education As Model For Community-Based Early Childhood, taken systematic steps in the form of the process of action, reflection, evaluation and innovation by applying qualitative research methods, descriptive, development, experimentation and evaluation. This study aims to gain in-depth overview of the Organic Village Environmental Education As Model For Community-Based Early Childhood. Village of Krobokan becoming a pilot village for urban areas for environmental regulation. Every citizen of organic crops and other useful plants such as mosquito repellent plants, fruit trees, etc. In addition, it is promoting recycling bins, especially organic waste that leaves of trees that have fallen. The leaves are processed into compost, but before it becomes compost. These leaves, crushed in advance by using a grinding machine garbage. It is intended to order the leaves into small pieces, so that when inserted into the barrel composer of the leaf pieces faster into fertilizer. The finished compost directly used to fertilize plants that live in stalls in the village Krobokan. For environmental education in early childhood, conducted in three schools namely TK Pembina State Semarang, Semarang Lab School kindergarten and kindergarten An Nur Semarang. The third school to apply the concept of habituation and role models as well as cooperation with parents</em>.<em></em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong><strong> </strong><strong><em>Organic Village, Environmental Education</em></strong><strong><em>, Early Childhood</em></strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Abstrak. </strong>Desa organik adalah sebutan untuk perkotaan / pedesaan sedang mengembangkan manajemen lingkungan di mana seluruh masyarakat untuk mengelola lingkungan dengan menanam tanaman organik.

Untuk menghasilkan prototipe Pendidikan Lingkungan Desa Organik Sebagai Model Untuk Anak Berbasis Anak Usia Dini, diambil langkah sistematis dalam bentuk proses tindakan, refleksi, evaluasi dan inovasi dengan menerapkan metode penelitian kualitatif, deskriptif, pengembangan, eksperimen dan evaluasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh gambaran mendalam tentang Pendidikan Lingkungan Desa Organik Sebagai Model Untuk Anak Usia Dini Berbasis Komunitas. Desa Krobokan menjadi desa percontohan untuk daerah perkotaan untuk pengaturan lingkungan. Setiap warga negara dari tanaman organik dan tanaman berguna lainnya seperti tanaman pengusir nyamuk, pohon buah-buahan, dll. Selain itu, mempromosikan sampah daur ulang, terutama sampah organik yang meninggalkan pohon yang telah jatuh. Daunnya diolah menjadi kompos, tetapi sebelum menjadi kompos. Daun-daun ini, dihancurkan terlebih dahulu dengan menggunakan mesin penggilingan sampah. Hal ini dimaksudkan untuk memesan daun menjadi potongan-potongan kecil, sehingga ketika dimasukkan ke dalam komposer barrel dari potongan daun lebih cepat menjadi pupuk. Kompos yang sudah jadi langsung digunakan untuk menyuburkan tanaman yang hidup di warung-warung di desa Krobokan. Untuk pendidikan lingkungan pada anak usia dini, dilakukan di tiga sekolah yaitu TK Pembina Negeri Semarang, TK Taman Kanak-Kanak Semarang dan TK An Nur Semarang. Sekolah ketiga menerapkan konsep habituasi dan model peran serta kerja sama dengan orang tua.</p><p><strong>Kata Kunci: Desa Organik, Pendidikan Lingkungan</strong><strong>, Anak Usia Dini</strong></p>

Abstract Situated within a series of river journeys, this inquiry considers the role of material landscape in shaping learning possibilities and explores practices of reading landscapes diffractively. We consider ways we might pay attention to the ever-changing flux of places while experimenting with posthuman pedagogical praxis. Methodologically, we embrace the post-qualitative provocation to do research differently by enacting a new empiricism that does not ground the inquiry in a paradigmatic structure. In doing so, we rethink conventional notions of method and data as we create a series of short videos from footage recorded during canoeing journeys with tertiary outdoor environmental education students. These videos, along with a student poem, form the empirical materials in this project. Video allows us to closely analyse more-than-human entanglements, contemplating the diverse ways we can participate with and read landscapes in these contexts. We aim to provoke diffractive thought and elicit affective dimensions of material encounters, rather than offer representational findings. This project intends to open possibilities for post-qualitative research, inspired by posthuman and new materialist orientations.
