Out-of-school learning has been playing an increasingly important role in science education. It can be implemented in various ways and encompasses learning activities that take place outside normal lessons reserved for compulsory education. This form of education is typically not coordinated by the school itself and young people take part in it voluntarily. It resembles “outdoor education”, which is, however, more closely linked with meeting aims stemming from formal education. Since the learning activities used in both forms of education are similar, very often solutions and experiences in one form are transferred to the other.Educators from many countries have shown considerable interest in out-of-school learning for many years. It is recommended in official documents concerning formal education and by organisations dealing with science education. Already in 1996, the National Science Education Standards, which are a set of guidelines for science education in primary and secondary schools in the United States, emphasised the importance of this method of expanding and supplementing students’ knowledge. Similarly, the materials for teachers accessible on the website of the Association for Science Education in the UK contain several useful tips concerning the use of out-of-school learning in science education.
