- W310991594 abstract "I have many people to thank who have been a source of help and encouragement and inspiration, but most of all I thank my wife Nikki and I share this award with her. Together, we have taken notes written on napkins and turned them into exciting experiences for students, a research program, and a mode of production. Besides being the real reason that Geojourney's itinerary becomes a reality each year, she also has the unique perspective of having been a student on the University of Georgia Interdisciplinary Field Program before I was ever involved (yes, she has even more experience with this than I do) and she has given me critical feedback on what it is like to be a student on this kind of program. I think Nikki's role in our efforts were best summed up by our camp cook Kevin Yates who described our professional interactions like this, Joe throws out a barrage of ideas on mental post-it notes: some good, some ridiculous, some inspiring, some unthinkable. Nikki sifts through that barrage of ideas, deflects the ones that are unmanageable and identifies the ones that just might I accept this award and acknowledge Nikki for being the other half of this and thank her for giving me the most important thing she can: her time. It has been a lot of fun hasn't it? I also thank Chris Watson who was the reason why Nikki and I ever got this far with any of our plans. Chris was the program coordinator for the University of Georgia Interdisciplinary Field Program in 1998 and it was fus interest in environmental issues and the role of human culture in shaping the modern landscape that opened my eyes to how much of what we were seeing in the field could be intertwined with geology to go beyond introductory-level course work. Although he has not been out in the field with us since 1999, Chris has consistently sent us mail while out in the field and his letters have always contained some article or text that has furthered the academic conversation he with us started ten years ago. Geojourney's interdisciplinary curriculum still bares his intellectual fingerprints. I also thank Jim Whitney, Dave Wenner, and Paul Schroeder of the University of Georgia who have served as mentors to me. Their efforts as the faculty instructors on the UGA-IFP and on Geojourney demonstrated how to teach and how to conduct yourself in a professional manner while living with your students in a field context. The time and energy they have put into experimenting with field-based pedagogy- to figure out what works and what doesn't- was an inspiration to me. They also instilled in me the importance of managing risk in the field as well as setting reasonable goals for the staff and students; much of the itinerary and logistics that comprise Geojourney were worked out by these men over the past 20 years. The unique living environment and learning community that results from living on the road, traveling the country, and camping out are not my work alone. …" @default.
