Abstract/Notes: The paper focuses on the relationship between Outdoor Education and adolescence in order to highlight the educational potential of this specific approach in relation to the development tasksof the age in which “going out” represents the symbolic figure of the personal and social identity construction. Starting from Rousseau and Montessori’s perspective, rethinking adolescents’education according to the outdoor method is today particularly congenial in school and extraschool contexts, with particular regard to their social and civic education. / Il contributo mette a fuoco il rapporto tra Outdoor Education e adolescenza al fine di mettere in luce il potenziale educativo di questo specifico approccio in ordine ai bisogni evolutivi dell’età in cui l’“uscire fuori” rappresenta la cifra simbolica del processo di ricerca e di costruzione della propria identità personale e sociale. Muovendo dalle prospettive di Rousseau e Montessori sul tema, ripensare l’educazione degli adolescenti secondo la modalità outdoor si rivela oggi particolarmente congeniale sia in contesti scolastici che extrascolastici, con particolare riguardo alla loro formazione sociale e civica.

Abstract/Notes: Margaret Stephenson begins with the reasoning elementary child as he answers questions about "all things." She centers on the unity of knowledge, leading "from the whole via the parts back to the whole." Imagination is enhanced to bring abstraction to an engaging and lofty motivation, and the elementary self is referred to as the "atom of the spirit." Miss Stephenson moves from the early "sensory" exploration of the three to six prepared environment to the language of its parts, flowing through names, then communication of ideas, and finally the languages of world, invention, and human keys to understanding.

Abstract/Notes: Early childhood education also known as preschool or pre-primary education is provided in settings such as Nursery schools, Kindergarten, Anganwadis, Montessori schools, etc. Some are located in the private sector while the Government sponsors some. Pre-primary education is critical for establishing a child's social, emotional, and overall well-being. Typically designed for 3 to 5-year-old children there are varying standards. It is on this foundation that the child's future learning and adaptability are built that it deserves serious attention. The importance of pre-primary education is recognized worldwide nevertheless universal coverage has not been achieved. According to the UNICEF Global Report on Early Childhood Education, which has come recently, world over there were at least 175 million children aged 3 to 6 years old who were not enrolled in school. The early years of a child's life build the basis for lifelong growth, and children who fall behind in these early years often never catch up with their peers, leaving them more likely to drop out of school and fail to reach their full potential. This points to the significance of probing into its causes and reflecting on solutions to overcome them. Going into the causes we find certain factors perpetuating this. Such are Economic backwardness, social backwardness, Institutional backwardness, and Administrative Deficiencies. The former two are pitfalls of a weak institutional system while the latter two reflect an institutional breakdown. Yet there are interlinkages between the two. Economic backwardness arises from the great divide between the rich and the poor and consequent power dynamics leading to increased marginalization of the poor. They lose the capability to encash opportunities for fair standards of living, education, adequate nutrition, appropriate housing, and healthy surroundings. Linked to it is the social backwardness where the morbidity becomes concentrated in the poor. Inadequacy of infrastructure and paucity of teaching-learning methods carefully tailor-made to needs, skilled manpower, motivators, and losing focus are major institutional factors. The state vested with the responsibility to intervene in high-priority areas lagging in progress or developmental needs through special programs and projects time to time suffer pitfalls pointing to administrative deficiencies as systemic factors. This paper attempts to bring out the issues and concerns of pre-primary education from an institutional perspective.
