教育活動特點
Educational Philosophy
1. 多元化趣味體驗
ecobus生態巴士帶您去遠足、觀星、觀鳥、觀蝶、考察大自然，讓您能享受、欣賞、學習大自然。我們為您提供工作坊、日營、實地考察、宿營、露營以至長期興趣課程等各類活動。
1. High diversity of interesting outdoor environmental activities
ecobus is happy to lead you to the nature to enjoy hiking, stargazing, bird watching, butterfly watching, field studying etc. We hope you can enjoy, appreciate and learn in the nature with us. We provide you a wide range of workshops, day camps, field trips, wild camping and other long-term programs.
2. 小組活動式學習
ecobus生態巴士的戶外活動由有經驗的導師帶領參加者以小組形式行動。我們致力降低師生比例（一名導師帶領3至8名參加者）以增進導師及參加者間的互動。我們鼓勵參加者多思考多發問，促進其學習體驗。同時，各項活動均由具國際或香港專業認可的持有急救證書的導師帶領，以確保學生活動安全。
2. Small-group experiential learning
All the ecobus activities are led by instructors who are experienced in outdoor activities and environmental education. To maximize the both teaching and learning experience, we try our best to lower the instructor-to-student ratio (usually 1 teacher to 3-8 students) to increase interactions. In addition, there are international or local certified first aiders in each of our program to ensure participants’ safety.
3. 著重可持續發展及批判性思考
我們透過活動帶出生態保育及可持續發展概念。我們的活動緊貼香港實際社會情況，透過探討不同主題、考察事例，分析大自然、社會、經濟各方面的利害，從而培養參加者的批判性思考，以及從多角度討論議題，並建立完整的個人觀點。
3. Sustainable development and critical thinking
Our activities bring up the core concept of environmental conservation and sustainable development. We lead participants to explore different points of view from various stakeholders. We also encourage and cultivate participants’ independent and critical thinking by activities such as group discussion and debate.

「無痕山林」（Leave No Trace, L.N.T.） 概念始源於美國，其目的是為了研究人類進行各類野外活動時，如何盡力減少對自然環境造成的衝擊。後來這個概念推廣至全球多個地方。學員將參加一個工作坊及一次野外露營訓練。
Leave No Trace (L.N.T.) is a concept developed in the U.S. back in 1960s. The concept calls for minimizing the impacts of outdoor activities. The ideas later spread to different parts of the world. Participants are required to attend a workshop and a training camp.

身在石屎森林的香港人也許甚少有機會接觸園藝和耕種，參與園藝班，也許需要在太陽底下播種施肥，也許雙手會沾滿泥土，也許會滿頭大汗，但看著自己親手種下的幼苗在輕風中搖擺，在悉心照料下茁壯成長，最終開花結果這種樂趣是任何電子遊戲都無法比擬的！生態巴士鼓勵有機耕種，特設園藝班結合理論和實操技巧教授種植知識，希望更多人能體驗種植的樂趣！
南極有沒有北極熊？全球暖化及氣候變異對南極和香港甚至我們有什麼影響？生態教育作家張偉賢和鄧展翔的《三個人在南極尋找北極熊》利用親身於南極探險之經驗，向學員介紹南極歷史和其獨特生態系統，帶出南極對我們的重要性，並引證全球暖化及氣候變異對地球的影響，讓學員認識大自然的重要性。
