Project versus lower-level student involvement learning activities at summer camp

Abstrakt

he contribution is focused on a comparison of teacher-centred learning with active learning with lower student autonomy, project-based learning (PBL) activities (where autonomy of students is higher), camp games and excursions. The comparison was carried out through a qualitative survey among participants of summer science camps (students), where the activities were held.

The results of the survey indicate that PBL activities implemented within the camp are perceived the most positively by their participants, but not considerably more positively than active learning activities withlower degree of students autonomy. Passive learning showed to be the less favourite activity of the summer camp programme.
