Teaching and learning can become inherently spontaneous and student-centric when moved from the confines of the classroom and into the world at large. Collaborative learning atmosphere results in the unique relationship that develops outside the classroom, to the deep learning that occurs when such knowledge is put into practice ‘in the real world’. Field experiences or ‘Beyond the Classroom’ experiences are unmatched in their learning potentials. Such experiences early in a student’s career can be formative and also inspire students in various fields of education and work.

Learning experience outside the classroom are inherently interdisciplinary. When students go out in the world, they encounter it as a whole and are therefore forced to face situations outside the comfort zone. ‘Beyond the classroom’ activities have therefore proved to be not only a way of gaining real world knowledge, but also an effective character building disciplinary.
