"The 2014 Mapping Meaning workshop will utilize the concept of a BioBlitz as a model for thinking about what it means to holistically "experience", "assess", "know" and "teach" place. We will expand this model to create an abcBLITZ, where abc stands for arts, biology and culture, as well as the metaphorical building blocks of "life/language". In essence, the abcBLITZ will be a focused way to think about interdisciplinary pedagogy - recognizing not only the importance of biodiversity but also the cultural and artistic histories central to any holistic understanding of a place."
