Abstract

This paper presents alternative educational methods used for teaching children during the summer school. The aims of this approach were: understanding the complex issues associated with the process of learning during the holidays and the necessity of approaching differently children from different environments (urban space or rural space). In the last six years the nongovernmental association “Alternative Education†organized summer schools for children in Lugoj, Timiş, Romania, and in the last three years in different villages from Timiş County. The paper describes the methods, how they were used and the outcomes. The analysis of the process reveals that it is needed to adapt the methodology to the environment of the children in order to achieve the most efficient interactive learning process.
