Tiivistelmä
This thesis is aiming to produce a mobile Adventure Education program for Quellhof e. V., focusing on establishing nature experience expeditions, as well as finding the ideal content for such programs and gaining insights on what makes a good and successful expedition.
In my thesis I used qualitative research methods including intervies for gathering information about the topics mentioned above. It also includes theories and previous research validating the effectiveness and benefits of Adventure Education methods, which are the core of my expedition programs.
To test the program practically I executed a test expedition with a cooperating school, having realistic participants and therefore being able to gather accurate information. This expedition showed the effectiveness of my program, measured by my own observation, the teacher’s opinion and the participants’ feedback.
