Field Trips

I certainly agree with incorporating trips into the course session. Students do experience much more from such as experience.

I also agree with that it gives the students a chance to visualize the workforce, because for some students has never been in the workforce field as of yet!

Jason,
Too, Vague ideas about some segment of a work setting can be transformed into a career-long inspirational motivation.

Afua,

I do agree that field trips are an important component of the classroom offering. In my experience teaching biological science classes, the experience in the field has opened up my students eyes to the world of science. It is more than memorizing facts. Science is all around us! How many field trips do you think you should conduct per term?

Afua,
And I think memories of a good field trip can be long lasting -- perhaps for a whole career, as it has been for me!
