Dr. Lynch’s passion for Experiential Education began as a child when he attended summer camp near the White Mountains of New Hampshire. He developed a passion for recreation and nonformal learning settings. Dr. Lynch believes meaningful education should focus on hands-on and project-based experiences. Dr. Lynch’s scholarly work reflects this sentiment and is focused on empirically investigating outcomes associated with recreation experience and the psychological components of creativity and motivation in nonformal settings.
