The National Park Classroom: A Guide to Designing Project‑Based Learning Adventures by James Fester (ISTE, 2025) offers educators a practical framework—borrowed from National Park Service educators—for creating immersive, place‑based, project‑based learning experiences. The NPC Framework supports exploration across subjects (science, math, language arts) and is anchored in ISTE, NGSS, and Common Core standards. Fester, a former ranger and PBL coach, provides tools for shifting from teacher‑centered to learner‑centered classrooms, integrating equity, career readiness, and culturally responsive teaching. Packed with real-world examples, links, and park resources, this 220‑page guide helps teachers transform any location—local or remote—into a vibrant classroom environment.
