Description

Our courses, developed in the framework established by the Erasmus+ Programme, are crafted to include both formal and non-formal education methodologies. Starting with a theoretical approach to the Outdoor Ed., we proceed with non-formal learning strategies to guarantee and stimulate an active contribution from the participants.   To achieve our goals we implement:
  • Analysis of study cases
  • Role-plays
  • Technical visits to local private and public institutions
  • Conferences with local professionals to exchange good practices
  • Workshops to rethink old practices and introduce new ones.

  • Getting awareness about the ICELANDIC Educational System at its different levels (Primary, Secondary, and VET)

Methodology & assessment

This course aims to provide teachers with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills for effective outdoor education. The interactive and hands-on nature of the course will empower teachers to confidently incorporate outdoor learning into their teaching methodologies. Each participant will have the opportunity to exchange knowledge and ideas in a real communicative and enjoyable context.
At the end of the course, participants are expected to hand out an online portfolio on the NTR e-platform with their reflections and improvements.
