The movements of transformation that concern school, visible both through the experiments that are being developed internally with projects of innovation and through the increase in alternative education and scholastic services and often with a bottom-up and outside school origin, can be understood as the expression of an education emergency which questions the consolidated experiences of education and/or instruction.

I movimenti di trasformazione che interessano la scuola, visibili sia attraverso le sperimentazioni che si stanno sviluppando al suo interno con progetti di innovazione sia attraverso l’incremento di servizi educativi e scolastici alternativi e spesso originati dal basso o nell’extrascuola, possono essere intesi come espressione di un’emergenza educativa che mette appunto in discussione i saperi e le esperienze consolidate di educazione e/o istruzione. Queste, insieme alla necessità di riequilibrare lo stile di vita dei bambini in una direzione più umana e naturale, sono tra le ragioni che stanno portando alla nascita di numerose esperienze di educazione all’aperto, che vanno dalle scuole nel bosco alle scuole all’aperto. Per meglio comprendere questa tipologia di esperienze, è stata avviata una ricerca che ha coinvolto 30 progetti educativi, connotati da una prevalenza di tempo trascorso all’esterno, i cui educatori e insegnanti sono stati intervistati per comprendere profili professionali coinvolti, identità dei servizi e bisogni formativi emergenti. Il contributo, muovendo da una prima analisi dei riferimenti teorici e metodologici di tali servizi e delle implicazioni formative che ne derivano, giunge a presentare l’elaborazione di proposte di formazione interuniversitaria che intendono cominciare a rispondere a quello che appare come un vuoto formativo.

Abstract
The movements of transformation that concern school, visible both through the experiments that are being developed internally with projects of innovation and through the increase in alternative education and scholastic services and often with a bottom-up and outside school origin, can be understood as the expression of an education emergency which questions the consolidated experiences of education and/or instruction. These, together with the need to rebalance the lifestyle of children in a more human and natural direction, are the reasons that are leading to the birth of numerous experiences of outdoor education, which range from schools in the wood to outdoor schools. In order to better understand this type of experience, a study has been started which has involved 30 educational projects, connoted by a prevalence of time spent outdoors. Their educators and teachers have been interviewed to understand the professional profile involved, the identity of the services and emerging educational needs. The contribution, starting from a first analysis of theoretical and methodological references of these services and of the educational implications that derive from them, presents proposals of inter-university training intend to start to answer what appears as an educational void.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
