摘要：Supported by a change of mentality, which coincides with the entry of the century, the investigations begin to question the intelligence quotient as a predominant factor in achieving social and professional success, going to defend the emotional quotient. Thus, we advocate its improvement in children and young people to equip them with differentiating competencies. Outdoor Training, which places individuals in natural settings outside their comfort zone, is shown as a methodology to better and faster learning than the traditional model. For this reason, it is being developed at this time a research project that aims to assess whether the methodology of outdoor training, used to work socio-emotional skills in executives, is also valid for working competences in children in basic education. For this, we chose an experimental study, which includes 162 students from two public schools in 1.º cycle of basic education Funchal Council, a group operating as an experimental group ( 83 students ) who participate in outdoor training activities during the academic year 2013/2014, and a control group (79 students). Children will be assessed at two points, at the beginning and end of the school year through the following instruments: the Bar -On Emotional Quotient Inventory test: Youth Version (Candeias & Rebocho, 2007), the Test of Emotional Comprehension (TEC, Ponst , Harris, & de Rosnay, 2004), the questionnaire Socially in Action (Socialmente em Acção, SA, Candeias, 2008), Social Cognitive Test Inteligência (Prueva Cognitiva de Inteligência Social, PCIS, Candeias, 2007); Raven’s progressive matrices (Simões , 2000) and the Piers-Harris Children’s Self-Concept Scale (PHCSCS -2, Veiga , 2006). By now it was made the first evaluation and are being developed outdoor training activities with the experimental group. In this paper, we present some qualitative results of the developments observed in the students who are participating in these activities.
