A pesquisa adotou a metodologia de estudo de caso. No entanto, os aspectos que motivaram esta publicação, são derivados dos debates do grupo de investigação, durante a revisão bibliográfica necessária à construção do estado da arte, das categorias de análise e da elaboração do quadro conceptual do projecto que, até à data , permitiu reconhecer as virtudes dos campos educacionais. Nesse sentido, é necessário considerar a assertividade como uma das habilidades sociais a ser fortalecida nos campos educacionais; Da mesma forma, é fundamental promover as diretrizes que regulam o comportamento dessa micro-sociedade constituída no acampamento, o que é pertinente para garantir a convivência pacífica dos acampados. Identificar, de acordo com as experiências de acampamento desenvolvidas no município de Villavicencio - Colômbia, os quatro momentos ou cenários ideais desta prática, para iniciar o ato de educar, bem como, as possíveis ações realizadas pelos participantes, para gerar reflexões propícias para fortalecer habilidades. Por fim, as conclusões refletem a viabilidade de articulação dos acampamentos aos projetos curriculares das instituições de ensino.
