摘要：The aim of the research is to determine the preference of the science and technology teachers about outdoor activities and their opinions about this education. Survey model is used in this study. Data are collected by “Teacher Opinions about Outdoor Education Survey”. Frequency analysis and content analysis are used. According to the results, the teachers mostly prefer such activities like “preparing model/material” and “reading books/ magazines about science and technology”, the least liked is “summer camps” and “visiting the youth centers”. Teachers indicate that they prefer these activities in order to promote their students’ active learning and the activities are effective in increasing the interest and curiousity of the students.
