The course was well structured, and the atmosphere that developed was immediately relaxed and enjoyable. Dario is an empathetic teacher, full of tasks and, above all, contagious enthusiasm and inspiration that you can draw from. The activity with Nikola was also enjoyable and interesting. It is worth noting that the course is interdisciplinary and intended for teachers of all school levels. Therefore, the content provided cannot be considered a ready-made library to draw from, but rather a model to personalise and make your own. Choosing to attend the course in August in Split, as I did, also means dealing with the heat and a crowded destination during the hours when there are no course activities. I would recommend attending it outside the peak season, or choosing one of the many other destinations offered by the school. Thank you Dario!Posted on Google![]()

I really enjoyed the Mindfulness and Wellbeing course. It was a very enriching experience that gave me useful tools to manage stress, improve my focus, and become more aware of my thoughts and emotions. Well-being strategies for teachers: practice mindfulness, relieve stress and foster resilience was a well structured course, engaging, and easy to follow. I particularly appreciated outdoor classes, the practical exercises and the opportunity to apply mindfulness techniques to everyday life. Dario created a welcoming and supportive environment, making everyone feel comfortable and involved. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve wellbeing, develop greater self-awareness, and find more balance in daily life. Split is a perfect natural location!!!Posted on Google![]()

The course was a truly positive and enriching experience. It introduced us to meaningful concepts and practical activities related to mindfulness, which I found particularly useful. Our teacher was one of the highlights of the course. He was extremely kind, engaging and cooperative, always bringing a great deal of energy and enthusiasm to the sessions. His genuine personality and gentle manners created a very positive and relaxed atmosphere within the group. I genuinely came to appreciate him thanks to his authenticity and the passion he put into his work. What I particularly appreciated was the attention he gave to every participant. He listened carefully to our questions, requests and comments and was always willing to adapt, clarify and respond to our needs. He made everyone feel heard and involved. Overall, I found the course very inspiring, enjoyable and valuable. I am leaving with new ideas, practical mindfulness activities and a greater awareness of the importance of wellbeing and resilience, both for teachers and for our students.Posted on Google![]()

I had a very mindful week in Split partaking in the course: Building better mental health and wellbeing. The methods we were introduced to will be helpful in managing the everyday stress of teaching. It was great to have a local teacher, who could share info about the Croatian culture as well as the course material. The additional social program was lovely as well and the guides provided us with insights into Croatian history and culture and showed us some truly special places.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Learn Outdoors to Enhance Learning and Social Growth
The positive effects of Outdoor Learning are significant and far-reaching. Research shows that outdoor activities can boost academic performance, support personal and social growth, improve mental health and overall well-being, and strengthen environmental awareness.
Outdoor Learning is an intentional, structured approach guided by a teacher, coach, instructor, or facilitator. A crucial component of the process is understanding the natural or urban environment where the learning experience occurs.
For this reason, our Erasmus+ teacher training course emphasizes practical knowledge, environmental awareness, and the development of attitudes that encourage responsible behavior toward nature. These elements contribute to healthier lifestyles, stronger well-being, and a deeper appreciation of the environment.

Teach in Diverse Outdoor Environments
Through hands-on workshops and collaborative group tasks, participants in this Erasmus+ KA1 course will explore the range and flexibility of outdoor education. Teachers will gain practical insight into how formal learning can be adapted to various outdoor locations, including:
- Natural areas: forests, beaches, and similar outdoor landscapes
- Urban environments: parks, public squares, and city streets
Educators will develop strategies for teaching students how to act responsibly in outdoor spaces, how to protect natural resources, and how to build a meaningful connection with their surroundings.

Apply Games and Project-Based Learning Outdoors
Teachers and adult educators will discover new methods for teaching a wide range of skills—such as intercultural communication, collaboration, and social development—through games, drama, and interactive techniques used outside the classroom.
Participants will also engage in project-based learning by creating an educational video outdoors, giving each educator the chance to consider how these approaches can be transferred to their own professional context.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
By the end of the course, participants will:
- Gain foundational understanding of outdoor education theory, methodology, and experiential learning principles
- Develop skills to incorporate more experiential activities to enrich lessons and boost student motivation
- Learn to design and implement active, experience-based learning tasks in outdoor spaces
- Explore creative ways to use games, drama, and improvisation to support “learning by doing”
- Expand their knowledge of how outdoor learning enhances personal growth and social skills
- Recognize how outdoor activities can be used to teach environmental topics
- Strengthen their ability to conduct risk assessments and ensure safety during outdoor lessons
