WHO WE ARE
An EU project with outdoor education at heart
We are a network of 8 organisations that want to make learning outside the classroom a tangible reality.
We believe that by making science fun, students will be more conscious about our planet’s sustainability while gaining cognitive, affective, social and behavioural skills.
OUR APPROACH
Education Outside the Classroom, the OTTER way
Learning outside of the classroom improves STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics) learning and awareness of today’s environmental issues.
OUR VALUES
What makes OTTER special
Education Outside the Classroom
A teaching method that improves students’ happiness, memory, behaviour and social skills.
Sophisticated Consumption
We are sophisticated consumers when we know what we are buying and not base our decisions only on the price.
Environmental Awareness
We should be aware of how our choices have an impact on the environment.
Scientific Citizenship
We are scientific citizens when we have enough knowledge to make informed decisions.
