Learning Outside the Classroom
Do you know boredom is a common by-product of the traditional education system and affects students of all age groups?
In the book '21st Century Skills: Learning for Life in Our Times', the authors Bernie Trilling and Charles Fadel affirm, “the world has changed so fundamentally that the roles of learning and education in day-to-day living have also changed forever”.
Customized outdoor-learning activities not only break up the monotony of indoor learning, but also help students develop confidence and connect with their course-content perfectly.
According to an article by Gary Stidder, learning outside the classroom is known to have significant educational benefits. It helps learners develop a can-do-attitude that can be applied to all aspects of life.
Working outside of the classroom with diverse groups of individuals allows students to gain more self-confidence and appreciation for others' differences and similarities.
Research suggests that these outdoor activities positively impact students' emotional, intellectual, social, and inter-personal development.
Recently, we conducted a fun outdoor teamactivity 'Leadership Turf' that witnessed an overwhelming participation of our students.
The objective of 'Leadership Turf' was to promote creativity, inspire motivation, and give students a new perception of learning.
Customized outdoor-learning activities not only break up the monotony of indoor learning, but also help students develop confidence and connect with their course-content perfectly. |
