Outdoor teaching has been given attention which might be natural, but it ap-pears to be problematic to get functioning. The aim to this study is to seek knowledge about preconditions needed to get outdoor teaching in science func-tioning and the requirements of the teacher. The method of the data collection in the study are qualitative interviews and a selection of teachers working at a school with outdoor teaching profile has been done. The respondents appear to have unanimous thoughts about outdoor teaching due to the result. Precon-ditions when it comes to outdoor teaching in science are shown to be connected to the organization of outdoor teaching. The outdoor teaching organization is shown to be successful if the learning environments are well planned and if there are available materials to use. An example of successful learning envi-ronment is an outdoor classroom where an “ordinary” classroom indoors has been moved outdoors. In the result of the study it appears that barriers to out-door teaching can be that the environment nearby the school isn’t suited, but it is shown that environments can be adjusted. A conclusion of the study is that barriers can be overcome if preconditions to outdoor teaching are being worked with.
