Fieldwork on selected educational paths

The paper concerns the possibilities of using educational paths as one form of fieldwork for activating learning. Educational paths, also fostering informal education of a wider society, allow for conducting direct observations and measurements, and are a great source of knowledge about the immediate environment. This form of learning enables interdisciplinary education, combining geography with other school subjects. To become a useful tool in education, however, an educational path needs to be carefully designed and built and accompanied by teacher’s materials (guide and handouts). All the examples of educational paths given in the paper come from the Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodeship (Poland)
