    Teaching outdoors for all: Increased physical activity as a natural by-product of the PAPPUS program

  • Original language description

    PAPPUS project (Plants and Play Producing Universal Skills) is an international project focused on adapting the British model of teaching outdoors to participating European countries. Next to the leading University of Gloucestershire from UK, the project partners are educational agencies from Poland, Slovakia, Austria, and Hungary together with Palacky University, Czech Republic. All partners are responsible for delivering one of the intellectual outputs (IO). The project target group consists of primary and secondary school pupils and the project focuses on all educational areas defined by The Framework Educational Programme for Basic Education. An educational course developed within PAPPUS uses methods of playful pedagogy. It includes playful gardening and botany, which help acquire skills and competencies for future life and enthusiasm for nature and its protection. As most educational activities take place in the outdoor environment, the physical activity of children is increased naturally and without difficulty. Moreover, there is a presumption that living in &quot;green spaces&quot; has a positive effect on children’s mental health. The key outputs of the project are 1) training materials (methodological cards, a self-directed on-line platform) and 2) educational PAPPUS course (teacher training programme).The Czech adaptation of the program will be verified in a pilot school with a large number of integrated children with special needs and pedagogical assistants in each class. During the project and in a follow-up study we aim 1) to assess the impact of learning outdoors for these children and 2) to identify the barriers and benefits of being outdoors for them (qualitative study).
