The realization that the modern era is accompanied by the habits of young people spending a lot of time “wandering” on the Internet, using digital technology, reinforcing the negative effects of a sedentary lifestyle, was the basis for the realization of a new idea. Ten years ago, a project was launched to establish and edit an electronic professional journal, Return to Nature, as a supplementary teaching tool for the subject Outdoor activities, at the Faculty of Sports and Physical Education, University of Belgrade. The goal of the research is to examine the impact of digital learning on students, the quality of teaching in the subject, and the self-sustainability of the journal using the method of theoretical analysis. After 10 years of publishing, e-edition, with author's texts and original photographs, the journal has shown that students are happy to use electronic media along with books and textbooks and that the publication has its place and value in the educational system. In parallel with the new editions, the editorial team has also grown, with contributors from several institutions from the country and abroad. The editions have so far recorded several thousand downloads from all over the world. Interest and the quality of teaching have increased significantly because students have also become involved in the work of the journal, who have gone from interested readers, analysts, commentators and proposers to successful authors themselves. Independent confirmation of the value of the journal came from the Faculty of Education in Zagreb, where the journal was recommended to students for use by their professors.
