Bushcraft Research

Click here; to read my recent research on.The Value of Bushcraft in Formal Education

This research aims to analyse the relationship between the embedding of bushcraft skills into formal countryside management qualifications and the performance of students. It shows through the testing of two cohorts of students one of which received no bushcraft tuition and one which did that the results differ significantly between the two groups. The group which received bushcraft tuition demonstrated much greater skills in the tested topic of plant identification and the potential reasons for this improved performance will be discussed here.
