Abstract:Supported by a change of mentality, which coincides with the entry of the century, the investigations begin to question the intelligence quotient as a predominant factor in achieving social and professional success, going to defend the emotional quotient. Thus, we advocate its improvement in children and young people to equip them with differentiating competencies. Outdoor Training, which places individuals in natural settings outside their comfort zone, is shown as a methodology to better and faster learning than the traditional model. For this reason, it is being developed at this time a research project that aims to assess whether the methodology of outdoor training, used to work socio-emotional skills in executives, is also valid for working competences in children in basic education. For this, we chose an experimental study, which includes 162 students from two public schools in 1.º cycle of basic education Funchal Council, a group operating as an experimental group ( 83 students ) who participate in outdoor training activities during the academic year 2013/2014, and a control group (79 students). Children will be assessed at two points, at the beginning and end of the school year through the following instruments: the Bar -On Emotional Quotient Inventory test: Youth Version (Candeias & Rebocho, 2007), the Test of Emotional Comprehension (TEC, Ponst , Harris, & de Rosnay, 2004), the questionnaire Socially in Action (Socialmente em Acção, SA, Candeias, 2008), Social Cognitive Test Inteligência (Prueva Cognitiva de Inteligência Social, PCIS, Candeias, 2007); Raven’s progressive matrices (Simões , 2000) and the Piers-Harris Children’s Self-Concept Scale (PHCSCS -2, Veiga , 2006). By now it was made the first evaluation and are being developed outdoor training activities with the experimental group. In this paper, we present some qualitative results of the developments observed in the students who are participating in these activities.Keywords: Outdoor Training, Emotional Intelligence, Social IntelligenceResumen:Apoyados por un cambio de mentalidad, que coincide con la entrada del siglo XXI, las investigaciones comienzan a poner en duda el coeficiente de inteligencia como factor predominante para alcanzar éxito social y profesional, pasando a defender el coeficiente emocional. Así, defendemos su perfeccionamiento en niños y jóvenes para dotarlos de competencias diferenciadoras. El Outdoor Training, que coloca a los individuos en contextos naturales fuera de su zona de conforto, se ha mostrado como una metodología que permite mayor eficacia y rapidez de aprendizaje que el modelo tradicional. Por esta razón, está siendo desarrollado en este momento un proyecto de investigación que pretende evaluar si la metodología de outdoor training, utilizada para trabajar competencias socioemocionales en empresarios, es también válida para trabajar competencia de niños de educación básica. Para tal, optamos por un estudio experimental, que incluye 162 alumnos de dos escuelas públicas de 1.º ciclo de educación básica del Concejo de Funchal, funcionando un grupo como grupo experimental (83 alumnos), que participará en actividades de outdoor training durante el año lectivo 2013/2014; y un grupo de control (79 alumnos). Los niños serán evaluados en dos momentos, al inicio y al final del año lectivo a través de los siguientes instrumentos: el test Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory: Youth Version (Candeias & Rebocho, 2007); el Test of Emotional Comprehension (TEC, Ponst, Harris, & de Rosnay, 2004); el cuestionario Socialmente em Acção (SA, Candeias, 2008); la Prueba Cognitiva de Inteligência Social (PCIS, Candeias, 2007); las matrizes progressivas coloridas de Ravem (MPCR, Simões, 2000) y el Piers-Harris Children’s Self-Concept Scale (PHCSCS-2 Veiga, 2006). En este momento ya fue realizada la primera evaluación y están siendo desarrolladas las actividades de outdoor training con el grupo experimental. En esta comunicación presentaremos algunos resultados cualitativos de la evolución observada en los alumnos que están participando en estas actividades.Palabras Clave: Outdoor Training, Inteligencia Emocional, Inteligencia Social
