The impact of residential adventure education on primary school pupilsWilliams, Randall January 2012 (has links)
This is a mixed method study carried out from a pragmatist philosophical position. The research question is how (if at all) do primary school pupils change following a residential adventure education experience, how does any change relate to their experience during the residential and what implications does that have for the provision of residential adventure education? It is a three phase study. Phase 1 is quantitative: a survey to assess whether there is a correlation between the extent of residential opportunities and whole school performance measures. Phase 2 is qualitative: a series of interviews with headteachers, parents and policy makers to discover their perceptions of the impact of a residential programme. Phase 3 is quantitative: designing and testing an instrument to measure the impact on pupils of different aspects of a residential programme and comparing this with their classroom attainment and their social and emotional development. No relationship was found between the extent of residential opportunities and whole school performance measures, although it was found that opportunities are inversely correlated with deprivation. Interview data produced a rich source of evidence for the way in which different aspects of a course combine together to produce a powerful impact. Complexity theory was used as a theoretical perspective to suggest that a non-linear step change in self-confidence could arise naturally and possibly inevitably as a result of the fact that residential adventure education is a complex system. Analysis of the pupil impact survey showed that many different aspects of the experience combine to create the impact but that it can reliably be separated into four components: living with others, challenge, teacher relationships and learning about self. There was a significant correlation between the improvement in individual pupils’ classroom attainment over the course of a term and the impact that the residential had on them. There was a significant improvement from pre-course to post-course in pupils’ prosocial behaviour and a significant reduction in perceived hyperactivity.

Action Research: The Application of Adventure Education in Learning Area of Integrated Activities in Junior High SchoolsHui, Kang-shu 24 July 2007 (has links)
Action Research: The Application of Adventure Education in Learning Area of
Integrated Activities in Junior High Schools
Abstract
The current research was conducted based on a self -constructed curriculum, The Lesson Plans of Application of Adventure Educationin Learning Area of Integrated Activities, on 37 (male = 20, female = 17) seventh graders for twelve weeks (a total of 24 formal sessions). One orientation and one review session were also conducted prior to and after the formal curriculum. The goals of the current action research are six-folded: (a) to design an age-appropriate Adventure Educationin curriculum in the application of Learning Area of Integrated Activities; (b) to examine how this curriculum may help students establish interpersonal connection and reach consensus among each other within a short time; (c) to investigate how this curriculum may help students understand and affirm self as well as appreciate others; (d) to explore how this curriculum may improve students¡¦ teamwork and problem-solving capacities; (e) to study how this curriculum may help students discover the mystery of Nature and subsequently elicit the emotions and behaviors of cherishing Nature; and (f) to provide concrete recommendations to the implementation of Adventure Educationin curriculum in junior high schools.
In addition to on-site observation, focus interviews were conducted on the students, lead teachers, subject teachers, and co-investigators. Information gathered from the observation notes, interview transcripts, reflection diary, student posters, self-portrait, and learning sheets was analyzed and interpreted. The research findings confirmed the six goals listed above. Specifically, the results revealed that: (a) it is feasible to design an age-appropriate Adventure Educationin curriculum in the application of Learning Area of Integrated Activities through the indicators of Learning Area and the principles of experiential learning; (b) the students in the current study established mutual understanding and interpersonal connection, discussed group-oriented ground rules, as well as reached consensus in a short time; (c) the students in the current study enhanced their self-understanding, active listening, as well as a sense of self-appreciation and appreciation to others; (d) the students in the current study developed a sense of teamwork, trust, and safety as well as positive problem-solving capabilities; (e) the students in the current study discovered the mystery of Nature, yielded emotions and behaviors of cherishing Nature, and learned how to create joy through the natural environment; and (f) the students in the current study learned how to apply what they have learned in the curriculum to daily life.
At last, recommendations and implications regarding application of Adventure Educationin curriculum in junior high school settings are discussed.
