Educators have used outdoor space to support learning throughout history. Over the past several years, the COVID-19 pandemic has compelled institutions of higher education to make innovations toward planning and constructing outdoor learning spaces on campus as a necessary measure for promoting student health and safety. This scoping literature review explores the landscape of research on use of campus space developed for outdoor learning in higher education around the world. In this review, we synthesize relevant research based on descriptive characteristics, research interests, supporting theories and frameworks, technology use, and learning outcomes. Our search uncovered a range of developed (i.e., constructed) outdoor space design guidelines, outdoor learning activities, and theoretical frameworks that expand our understanding of outdoor spatial use on college and university campuses. This scoping review offers qualitative and descriptive quantitative findings and offers practical implications for higher education stakeholders as they explore possibilities for developing outdoor space on their campuses for teaching and learning.
