In Shiga Prefecture, elementary school fourth graders experience a forest-environment learning project called “YAMANOKO.” The authors endeavored to clarify factors concerning the retention of memories garnered from YAMANOKO programs by analyzing high school students’ memories. For this purpose, the authors carried out a group interview and a questionnaire survey of five to six students from six different high schools in Shiga Prefecture. Results of the analysis indicated two factors: enjoyability, and doing the activity by themselves.
