Description

Introduction. A major and persistent challenge for OAE is the extent to which the learning experiences of students effect change beyond the immediate outdoor environment (Leberman & Martin, 2004). This challenge is not restricted to OAE, for as a number of authors have argued, the usefulness of experiences beyond the specific conditions of initial learning is a central and enduring goal of education (Bransford & Schwartz, 1999; Lobato, 2006). Within OAE, transfer has been identified by some authors as "one of the most critical features of adventure programming" (Priest & Gass, 2005, p. 21). In efforts to justify the value of OAE, some researchers and practitioners have argued for the importance of transferring skills/knowledge to other life situations and have advocated various approaches to facilitation that are claimed to enhance learning and transfer (Priest & Gass, 1997; Priest, Gass, & Gillis, 2000; Sugarman, Doherty, Garvey, & Gass, 2000). OAE activities are often structured to develop metaphors which symbolise the 'deeper learning' that has meaning beyond the immediate OAE context.
