ABSTRACT
The authors discuss place-based education in middle level education, including how place-based education can be viewed as an overarching framework for several contextual and constructivist pedagogies. After reviewing the extant research literature on place-based education in middle level education, including identifying limitations of existing research and future research directions, the authors present a place-based education framework for middle level career development, which is an important future direction in the place-based education literature.
