Abstract: ZippyGo is a new quiz game tested out in different settings, mostly for fun, but has also been tested on adult students in Norway. The posts are geo-referenced, hence it is an outdoor game. The literature on outdoor schooling refers to positive experiences regarding achievements, social structures, collaboration and cooperation. Games for learning has been used for several decades, but most of the literature is about videogames and simulation games. Drawing on the outdoor schooling experiences and what we know about communication, collaboration, cooperation and competition in games and how this contributes to a stimulating learning environment, we seek to organize a project utilizing ZippyGo as the outdoor quiz game to see if the use of this game will have an, amongst the pupils, experiences impact on the social structures and learning environment in the classes. In this paper we propose how the quiz game can be used, based on the literature on outdoor schooling and the use of games for learning purposes. The game will be tested out in a secondary school in North Macedonia, and we will observe and interview the pupils after they have been subjected to the gaming. Our aim with the study is to investigate if this combination of being outdoor and using a game for learning will have an impact on the social structures and learning outcome, based on the input from the pupils.
