Urban Farm DB summary
In the USA, the specific term 'outdoor education' began to be used as early as the first decade of the 1900s. At this time, outdoor education simply meant a form of education that was not indoor education. Reformers used the hyphenated terms 'out-door' or 'out-of-doors' to communicate a sense of being active in settings other than classrooms.
