The idea was to incorporate more of "playful geography" methods into local field-trips organised by the Department of Geography. During the stay the applicant cooperated with the host (prof. Jan Ketil Rod) on two innovative projects related to the playful geography and field courses - one was focused on Story Maps technology and the other one was focused on Wherigo platform as a tool for field courses interaction. The most important outcome of the stay is signed ERASMUS+ agreement (both students´ and teachers´ exchanges), idea for grant proposal and start of common academic paper.
