The purpose of this study is to investigate how participating in an outdoor residential environmental education experience at Bradford Woods affects students' retention of science knowledge. The study aims to understand the relationship between this type of educational experience and adherence to science state standards. By examining these aspects, researchers hope to gain insights into the effectiveness of outdoor education in reinforcing science concepts.

Participants in the study will engage in various educational activities at Bradford Woods designed to align with science state standards. These activities will provide hands-on learning experiences that could enhance students' understanding and memory of science topics. The study will measure how well students remember science information after their participation in this program.

• Who can participate: The study is open to students who are eligible to participate in the Bradford Woods outdoor program. Participants should be within the age range suitable for the educational activities offered.
• Study details: Participants will take part in educational activities at Bradford Woods, which are aligned with science state standards. These activities are designed to provide hands-on learning experiences.
