Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka och komma fram till fritidspedagogernas intentioner med barns utomhusvistelse. Mina frågeställningar var hur fritidspedagogerna ser på utomhusvistelsen? Hur verksamhetens utomhusvistelse formas med deras uppfattning som grund? Hur pedagogerna ser på sin roll i utomhusvistelsen? Samt vilken/vilka kunskaper och vilket lärande pedagogerna anser att barn tillägnar sig genom utomhusvistelsen?Min studie grundar sig på kvalitativa intervjuer med fem stycken fritidspedagoger. I studien framkom att pedagogerna har olika pedagogiska intentioner med barnens utomhusvistelse samt att de ser denna miljö som en miljö av stort värde både för barns utveckling och för deras lärande.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att bidra med kunskap om vilken rollutomhuspedagogik kan ha i undervisning i grundskolans tidigare år. Jagundersöker vad utomhuspedagogik innebär ur ett didaktiskt perspektiv.Genom kvalitativa intervjuer med fyra pedagoger, tar jag reda på hur lärareuppfattar att de använder sig av utomhusmiljön i undervisningen.Jag kommer fram till att utomhuspedagogik erbjuder unika möjligheter inomdidaktikens olika områden och har förmåga att göra en helhet av de olikadidaktiska frågorna, vad, hur och varför. Lärarna motiverar utomhusvistelsegenom att referera till hur barn lär sig, snarare än vad som ska läras ut.Resultatet visar ett fokus på skogsupplevelser, vilket begränsarutomhuspedagogikens möjligheter till varierade autentiska utgångspunkter.Genom att vara medveten om utomhuspedagogikens didaktiska syfte tasdess potential till vara..

Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad förskollärare har för tankar om utomhuspedagogiken som arbetssätt och hur utomhusmiljön används, samt hur den kan stimulera barns utveckling och lärande. Studien kommer även att belysa vilka möjligheter och hinder som kan uppkomma i det utomhuspedagogiska arbetssättet. Intresset för utomhuspedagogik har ökat markant och den blir allt mer allmän i förskolor idag. Det problemområde som finns med utomhuspedagogiken är att den lätt kan misstolkas som att vara en ersättning för den traditionella pedagogiken inomhus. Utomhuspedagogiken har inte som syfte att ersätta någon form av pedagogik, utan den ska istället vara ett komplement i verksamheten.

In all types of learning situations, it is important to find each student where they are at the moment in knowledge. I have reflections about  what animal experience students have with them when they begin their education. This thesis is about what home environment and in home environment acquried animal experience student at agricultural college have.
