Abstract: A fundamental issue in education is how educated judgments about the use of leisure time can be developed. The future of recreation in education depends initially upon the acceptance of the leisure setting as a medium for carrying the learning process forward. Recreation becomes a challenge to any educational venture because of its inherent motivation, opportunity for under standing and reflective thinking, a chance for success or achievement, and the possible transfer or use of skills or knowledges.
