Role of Field Trips in Education:
- Hands-on exploration during field trips lets students touch, see, and interact with real objects, like handling fossils in a museum or feeling the texture of plants on a nature walk.
- During field trips sensory-rich experiences are remembered clearly because multiple senses create stronger mental connections than reading alone.
- It raises environmental awareness when students connect directly with nature.
- Field trips build appreciation for history, culture, and community landmarks.
- It increases curiosity in science through experiments and direct exploration.
- Field trips encourage lifelong learning beyond textbooks and assignments.
