Title: Outdoor Education: Body, Learning, Nature

Abstract: In present day society there are strong contradictions concerning the concept of environment. Environmentalism, with its sustainability, and the protection of animals are much emphasized, but the occasions for contact with nature are few especially in the young generations in that they are often associated with the concept of danger. Public areas, limited by social and environmental restrictions, especially those in urban areas, are not childfriendly and generate fear and anxiety in parents, carers and teachers. Restrictions, advice and suggestions interfere with a free and direct relationship of the child's body with nature. This paper of bibliographical research aims at focusing on the enormous benefits, for all, of contact with a natural environment in the educational and social field and in the development in health and wellbeing. It is essential therefore to cultivate from an early age the innate affinity that exists between children and nature. Through Outdoor Education (OE), analyzing educational solutions that demand the action of an educational system that is integrated between schools and other educational agencies, reflections will be made, comparing and assessing the data gathered here, both in school and outside, on the consequent social and cognitive effects on knowledge, skills and competences.

Title: Outdoor Education: corpo, apprendimento, esperienze in ambiente naturale

Abstract: Nella società contemporanea sono presenti forti contraddizioni circa il concetto di ambiente. Sono molto enfatizzati l'ambientalismo, la sostenibilità, l'animalismo ma le occasioni di contatto con la natura sono pochissime soprattutto nelle giovani generazioni in quanto associate spesso al concetto di pericolo. Gli spazi pubblici, ostacolati da vincoli sociali e ambientali, specialmente quelli urbani, non sono alla portata dei piccoli e generano paure ed ansie nei genitori, educatori ed insegnanti; divieti, consigli e suggerimenti disturbano il rapporto libero e diretto del corpo del bambino con la natura. Questo lavoro di ricerca bibliografica vuole soffermarsi sugli enormi benefici, per tutti, del contatto con l'ambiente naturale in campo educativo, sociale, di sviluppo in salute e benessere. È determinante allora coltivare, sin dalla tenera età, l'innata affinità tra bambini e natura. Attraverso l'Outdoor Education (OE), analizzando soluzioni educative che richiamano l'azione di un sistema formativo integrato tra scuola e altre agenzie formative, si rifletterà, confrontando e valutando i dati raccolti in questa revisione, a scuola e nell'extrascuola, sulle conseguenti ricadute sociali, cognitive, su conoscenze, abilità e competenze.

Title: Éducation en plein air: corps, apprentissage, expériences dans un environnement naturel

Abstract: Dans la société contemporaine, il y a de fortes contradictions sur le concept de l'environnement.L'environnementalisme amélioré, la durabilité, l'animalisme sont très soulignés, mais les possibilités de contact avec la nature sont très rares, en particulier dans les jeunes générations, car elles s'associaient souvent au concept de danger.Les espaces publics, entravés par les contraintes sociales et environnementaux, en particulier les contraintes urbaines, ne sont pas à la portée des enfants et génèrent des peurs et des angoisses chez les parents, les éducateurs et les enseignants;Les briseurs, les conseils et les suggestions perturbent la relation libre et directe du corps de l'enfant avec la nature.Ce travail de recherche bibliographique veut se concentrer sur les énormes avantages, pour tout le monde, en contact avec l'environnement naturel dans l'éducation, le social, le développement en santé et bien.Il est alors décisif de cultiver, dès son plus jeune âge, l'affinité innée entre les enfants et la nature.Grâce à l'éducation en plein air (OE), à l'analyse des solutions éducatives qui rappellent l'action d'un système de formation intégré entre l'école et d'autres agences de formation, il reflétera, comparant et évaluer les données collectées dans cette révision, à l'école et dans l'extrascription, sur les répercussions sociales, cognitives consécutives, sur les connaissances, les compétences et les compétences.
