Participants explored both natural and urban environments, discovering that meaningful outdoor learning does not require forests or remote locations. Activities were designed to teach subjects such as science, mathematics, art, music, and languages through <strong>observation and interaction with surroundings.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A significant part of the training focused on practical activities in local parks, where participants tested games and teaching tools. These <strong>hands-on experiences<\/strong> inspired them not only to adopt new ideas but also to create their own outdoor activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The course also introduced <strong>Non-Formal Education (NFE)<\/strong>, an approach centred on experiential learning. By guiding students through structured reflection, teachers can help them connect new knowledge to real-life situations and apply it effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9718 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3037-scaled.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9719 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_3061-scaled.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the final stage, participants designed their own outdoor lessons tailored to their students\u2019 age groups, subjects, and learning objectives.
