Abstract
This paper describes the partial results of a research project which investigated conceptions of nature and the role of place in environmental education in children who attended Camp Arowhon. Through interviews and observations, utilizing a hybrid research drawing from phenomenography and ethnography, local common wild animals emerged as playing an important role in campers’ embodied connection to place. Through structured “nature programs” and unstructured “free-play,” campers discovered and increased their familiarity of common local animals. Using the deleuzeoguattarian concept of becoming, these interactions are proposed to serve as a starting point through which a child can move on to engage with increasingly abstract aspects of the natural world. Implications for urban environmental education, where these children spend the majority of their year, are discussed. Resume Le present article decrit les resultats partiels d’un projet de recherche de 2003, lequel etudie des representations de la nature et le role de l’espace dans l’education ecologique chez les enfants qui frequentaient le camp Arowhon. Par des entrevues et des observations, se servant d’une ebauche de recherche hybride sur la phenomenographie et l’ethnographie, on a decouvert que les animaux sauvages communs du coin jouent un role important dans les rapports que les campeurs incarnent par rapport a l’espace. Par des programmes structures, axes sur la « nature » et le « jeu libre » non structure, les campeurs ont decouvert et accru leur connaissance des petits animaux sauvage communs du coin. En utilisant le concept de deleuzeoguattaria du devenir, on propose ces interactions comme point de depart par lequel un enfant eventuellement aborder des aspects de plus en plus abstraits du monde naturel. On discute des implications de l’education ecologique urbaine, ou ces enfants passent la majorite de leur vie d’eleve.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
