Nature as Medicine and Classroom: Evaluating an Innovative, Outdoor Course for Medical and Dental Students
CONCLUSIONS: Students described a positive experience of the course. Several areas of personal and professional development were also described, such as improvements within cognitive domains, enhanced connection with nature, others, and themselves, increased mindfulness, and overall improved well-being.
