Abstract:
In order to increase the effects of the learning process, outdoor education can be successfully integrated into formal education, the educational process thus becoming much more valuable in terms of quality and thus producing long-term advantages and thus allowing it to cover a wide range of school subjects. The concept of the outdoor being a complicated one must be deepened, experienced, and learned step by step until it becomes a habit for the school. The impact on the learning process is stimulating, motivating. Outdoor minimizes the constraint but does not eliminate the rules, clear codes to be strictly observed. The learning framework is generous, but the content is light, preferential. Children's experience is integrated into the context, methods must be chosen carefully to stimulate active but flexible involvement and participation, and long-term benefits are guaranteed.
