The atmosphere of outdoor ecological education is therefore gradually formed. Outdoor ecological education has become an international trend in past years. Outdoor ecological education means the learning outside a classroom, expecting learners’ learning, through exploration, observation, operation, interaction, reflection, and connection with five-sense experience, being closer to the life experience and to cultivate talents being able to adapt to future life. Applying non-equivalent experimental design to the experimental research, total 236 college students of universities in Taiwan, as the experiment objects, are preceded the 15-week (3 hours per week for total 45 hours) outdoor ecological education integrated project-based learning 2x2 experimental teaching. The research results summarize the significant effects of outdoor ecological education on problem-solving capability, project-based learning on problem-solving capability, and the practice of project-based learning to outdoor ecological education curriculum on the promotion of learning effect. According to the results to proposed suggestions, it is expected that college students would present deeper cognition and learning on outdoor ecological education to really achieve the application, exploration, and creation capabilities from outdoor ecological education curriculum.
