Field Trips
I teach Audio Technology. I find that getting the students out of the class room and into a real studio is invaluable.
Classroom time is always important, but physically taking a trip really stimulates interests in my students.
Sean,
Right. Out of all the many class days that students attend, they will always remember the field trip experiences. That's a powerful instructional tool!

I think that field trips are great because it gives the student a real look at what goes on in our field.
John,
And, besides a break in the routine and providing some insight into the real world of work, these activities motivate, inspire, and encourage students.
