What are the benefits of study tours to children’s education?

Study trips are organized by the school based on regional characteristics, student age characteristics and the teaching content needs of each subject. Students go out of campus through collective travel and centralized food and accommodation, so as to expand their horizons and expand their horizons in a life that is different from usual. Enrich knowledge, deepen the sense of closeness to nature and culture, and increase experience of collective lifestyle and social ethics.

The history of study tours can be traced back to Confucius. Confucius took his students to travel around the country and lobby the princes. This was a study trip. The old saying “Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles” is the most classic explanation of study travel. Later, the great educator Tao Xingzhi advocated "learning by doing", which became the modern interpretation of city study tours.

From the perspective of modern pedagogy, it is actually an education method that combines basic knowledge with practical knowledge.

So, what are the benefits of study trips for children?

The first is to adjust the psychology. After a long semester of closed study, it is time for children to relax and relax and adjust appropriately.

The second is to increase interest. Learn from society, learn in practice, social practice, everything in the world is knowledge. Participating in study tours to nature, entering society, and entering museums are just confirmation of the knowledge that children learn from textbooks on daily basis. It can effectively enhance children's interest in learning.

The third is to cultivate an independent spirit. Nowadays, children are under great pressure to study, and parents often provide their children with all services except study. Many children do not have the concept and habit of solving problems by themselves. Participating in study tours can be a good opportunity for children.

The fourth is to enhance self-confidence. The same routine of study and life in daily life destroys children's courage to contact the unknown world. Specially designed activities for children through study tours can give children the confidence to do things they have never done before, get to know new team members, and gain from them.

The fifth is to hone the quality of will. Children are usually accustomed to asking their parents to help them solve problems when they encounter problems, and they have no awareness of hardship. Participating in study tours can help children learn to persevere.

Sixth, cultivate collective consciousness and team spirit. Today's society has changed from the era of personal legends to the era of League of Legends, and signing up for groups to keep warm is the trend of the times. Participating in study tours can help children improve their awareness of teamwork, learn teamwork skills, and feel a sense of team honor.

There are many benefits of studying rationality. Friends are welcome to add.

But in fact, the current study tour has become a way for some parents to show off and a vehicle for some institutions to make money.

Last year, I saw posters from research institutions, about 15-day in-depth tours of Europe, Japan, and various promotions for skin vitality. However, it was overwhelming, and the expenses were often 50,000 to 60,000 yuan - no To put it politely, I don’t even understand the city or region where I live. What’s the point of letting children of just a few years old travel abroad for in-depth travel, apart from “getting on the bus to sleep, getting off the bus to pee, and taking a few photos everywhere”? Isn't it just for profit?

As for us individual parents, just taking this opportunity to post some photos on WeChat Moments to show off, what’s the point?

Personally, I believe that a real study trip is to fully explore the historical, cultural and modern resources around us, so that children can understand our city and our hometown, and then we can build our city. Our hometown—and a country, isn’t it made up of cities and hometowns?

Study tours are of great benefit to children’s growth and success. Families with the conditions must allow their children to participate in more study tours.

Let’s first clarify the name of study tours.

Study tour is not a general tourist activity. It should include "study" and "study", "travel" and "enjoyment", and half "study" and "travel" in order to learn *** Carry out collective learning activities in a unified way, and learn and experience in social and natural classrooms. , if you go out in twos and threes on weekends, that’s not called a study trip. Under the leadership of teachers or counselors, students move together, do things together, experience and discuss with each other. This is a study trip. If the children follow their parents to a different place, it is just a trip. In addition, students must have experience, not just take a look and turn around, but also have opportunities to use their hands, their brains, their mouths, and their expressions. Under certain circumstances, there should be confrontation drills and escape drills. Practicing should involve exerting some effort, sweating a little, and even going through hardships and seeing the world.

So, what are the benefits of study tours to children’s growth?

In my opinion, there are roughly three aspects:

1. Expand horizons and understand society

Most of the basic education in primary and secondary schools is in school and laboratory environments. Most of what students learn is book knowledge. Even if they acquire knowledge and skills through experiments or virtual experiment multimedia, it is under laboratory conditions with the background of the school, focusing on indirect experience and rational knowledge. Study trips allow students to Get out of the relatively closed campus, get to know and experience the society, understand the local conditions, realize the effective unity of indirect experience and direct experience, and truly experience the cognitive process of knowledge, thus promoting the second leap in students' learning and growth.

2. Cultivate team awareness and sense of responsibility

We have been clamoring for many years to implement comprehensive development of students' moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and labor skills, but there is no good method. To achieve. Students learn book knowledge in school and their "intellectual education" is well cultivated, but they are always lacking in other aspects, which is regrettable. Effective study tours can solve this problem very well. In the short term, “study travel” has strong educational and practical significance as well as public welfare. In the long run, students can draw the power of their own development from society and nature during the study tour, and at the same time exercise their practical ability, teamwork ability and social responsibility.

3. Get rid of Internet addiction

Study trips allow children to get rid of the constraints of the Internet. Due to the impact of economic and social development, children have become more and more dependent on mobile phones, tablets, and TVs, whether for study or entertainment, and have even become addicted. We cannot get rid of the Internet, we can only guide our children well. Study trips guide students to a certain extent, leaving the cold screen and opening their hearts to group life. This has obvious benefits for children's growth.

The above are my views on study travel. I hope it can help you!

I very much agree with this approach! At the same time, I really want to go this way! Study tours have many benefits for children’s growth. Let me talk about some of my own views. One is to open your eyes and gain knowledge. Children's understanding always begins with perceptual perception, what they see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and touch with their hands. Children will be full of curiosity and very interested in new things and new travel spots. As the old saying goes: See more and learn more. The more you see, the more you will become knowledgeable. Only by moving around and traveling more can you ensure that you see more. Living in a relatively fixed space makes it difficult to accept new things. Second, children get more happiness from it! Children prefer to play with children. This is the nature of children, they can get happiness from it. We all know that after children play games together, they will talk endlessly to their parents about what just happened. They are excited and happy beyond words. We all want our children to have a happy childhood and growth. Third, it can train children's communication and collaboration abilities. The study trip is a group activity, every child will participate, and they will start interacting and communicating with other children unconsciously. During the activity, children can adjust their own roles and communication methods, which is equivalent to self-reflection and self-learning.

Coupled with the teacher's guidance and correction, children will progress faster.

Finally, I would like to say that we must pay attention to safety. This is the top priority in collective activities. Let’s talk about some regrets! I have been teaching for 17 years, and study tours are a method of education that I like very much. Unfortunately, I have never conducted one so far. For various reasons that everyone must know, there are some things that I can’t make decisions about yet. I hope to have the opportunity to participate in activities such as study tours in the future!

A suggestion: At present, it is unlikely that the school will organize such an activity. Parents who want to participate in a study tour can hire a few teachers to conduct it during the holidays through a travel agency.

Hello, I am a teacher at a post-90s training institution, engaged in family education and outdoor study courses. I'm very happy to answer your question.

Regarding your question, what are the benefits of study trips for our children? This is my answer.

First of all, study tours give children the opportunity to grow independently without their parents. Many children have learned to be self-reliant and take care of their own daily life independently, thereby exercising their life skills. Children who often participate in study tours are more careful, considerate, and able to take care of others.

Secondly, study tours give children a good peer partnership and solve the problem of only children. Children live together, play, expand, and learn unity and integration. Learned to deal with friction and deal with interpersonal relationships. It is also easy for children with leadership, organizational and coordination skills to emerge from the team. This is unique to collective life.

Study tours focus on the combination of learning and play. Children who often participate have a broader knowledge, a bigger picture, and a higher level of understanding of many things. Such children are more confident and good at expressing themselves.

More importantly, long-term academic development makes children’s personalities more sound. Combining the learned knowledge with social practical abilities is more conducive to gaining a foothold in society.

All in all, studying is not just playing, but also in-depth learning. I hope my answer can help you.

What is a study trip? On March 4, 2014, the Ministry of Education’s “Notice on Further Improving the Pilot Work on Study Tours for Primary and Secondary School Students” explained this as: “For all primary and secondary school students, arrangements will be organized by the school to cultivate the life skills and collective concepts of primary and secondary school students. , innovative spirit and practical ability as the goal, it is an important part of the comprehensive practical activity curriculum in the basic education curriculum system." Research travel is a comprehensive social practice activity that integrates social surveys, visits, personal experiences, information collection, expert comments, group activities, peer assistance, text summaries, etc. It is a comprehensive practice activity course in the basic education curriculum system. The purpose of study tours is to allow students to get in touch with society and nature, learn and exercise during travel experiences, thereby cultivating life skills, collective concepts, innovative spirit and practical abilities, and developing self-care, self-reliance, civility and courtesy, mutual encouragement and mutual help, and hard-working, Excellent qualities and spirits such as hardship and simplicity can enhance their understanding and understanding of nature and society, and enhance their sense of social responsibility and practical ability. 2.2 The significance of study tours Carrying out study tours is of great significance. For the country, this is an action to implement the "National Medium and Long-term Education Reform Plan and Development Outline", an important carrier for citizens to cultivate and practice the core socialist values, and an important measure to expand the space for tourism development. From the school level, it is an important way to deepen the reform of basic education curriculum, an important position to promote the implementation of quality education, and an important part of the combination of school education and off-campus education. From the perspective of the tourism industry, study tours pay more attention to the cultural tourism resources of the destination and are a high-level cultural tourism that meets the needs of self-improvement. Li Jin, director of the National Tourism Administration, proposed the new six elements of tourism at the 2015 National Tourism Work Conference: "Business, Cultivation, Learning, Leisure, Emotion, and Adventure." For the first time, study tours were regarded as elements of tourism development or expansion. Study tours have become a quality education course in primary and secondary schools and a growth point for the development of the tourism industry.

The scope and characteristics of three study tours 3.1 The scope of study tours The relevant documents of the State Council and the Ministry of Education clearly stipulate the scope of study tours. Study tours are mainly carried out among primary and secondary school students. For safety reasons and taking into account the cognitive level of students, there are corresponding regulations on the main scope of study for students of different school ages: at the primary school stage, study of local conditions is the main focus; at the junior high school stage, study tours are conducted in counties. The scope of travel destinations for high school students is mainly to study the provincial and national conditions: primary school students mainly study within the province; junior high school students mainly study within the province and surrounding provinces; high school students mainly study within the country, if conditions permit Outbound study tours can be appropriately organized. The time range of research activities: 2 days and 1 night in elementary school, 3 days and 2 nights in junior high school in the fourth to sixth grade of elementary school, 4 days and 3 nights in high school in the first or second grade of junior high school, and interactive research in the first or second grade of high school It is scientific and reasonable to stipulate such principles for the scope of travel objects, time and destinations. During the study trip, students start from cultivating their feelings for their hometown. The location is from near to far, and the time is from short to long. As students learn about it, With the improvement of the level, the content of the study also gradually expands from nostalgia, market conditions to provincial conditions and national conditions, so that the thoughts and sentiments of loving hometown and loving the motherland can be gradually inspired.

Study trip is a kind of trip that combines theory with practice, and is also a combination of school life and real life.

It is said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Studying can increase children's knowledge, and they can also learn in the field, which is more direct than books. In short, there are many benefits!

Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. The broadening of the visual field of vision can effectively promote the broadening of the spiritual field of vision. If possible, you can study more.

On February 2, 2013, the notice of the General Office of the State Council on the issuance of the National Tourism and Leisure Outline (2013-2020) was issued nationwide. The idea of ??“study trip for primary school students”. Previously, many regions in our country have tried to carry out study tours as an important part of promoting quality education.

The concept of "study studies" has gradually entered the Chinese people's horizons with the development of national quality education. It has been seven years since 2013. During these seven years, the number of study tours carried out The region has developed from a small-scale pilot project in 12 provinces and cities to now "full bloom"

Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles

Study and travel with us. There are obvious differences between "tourism" in the traditional sense. "Tourism" focuses on playing, while "study travel" focuses on "research" and "learning". In other words, students' travel is not simply "travel", students need to In the process of "travel", we focus on walking into reality, walking into nature, and exploring nature. In the process of exploration and discovery, we help students get out of books, understand the national conditions, broaden their horizons, and increase their knowledge, which can improve students' sense of social responsibility and innovation. Spiritual and practical ability.

The knowledge learned in reality is far richer, more realistic and concrete than the knowledge in books, so we must not only "read thousands of books" but also "travel thousands of miles". .

There are so many benefits of study tours. In what aspects can we carry out study tour activities? In other words, what are the themes of study tours? What kind of theme activities can we carry out to enrich students? Knowledge, to promote the deep integration of book knowledge and life experience, to promote the implementation of quality education, or to inspire students' love for the party, the country, and the people?

What is the theme of the study trip?

1. Red Revolution Traditional Education Theme

Our revolutionary ancestors fought unyieldingly in the modern struggle, demonstrated the national revolutionary spirit, and left many precious revolutionary relics. Red resources can be combined with study tours. According to the age characteristics, subject characteristics and educational training focus of students, various study and education activities can be carried out, such as patriotic education and other special study tour activities, to inherit the revolutionary spirit and national spirit. Cultivate students' sense of national identity.

2. Chinese Tradition History Cultural Theme

Chinese civilization has lasted for five thousand years and has tenacious vitality. It is broad, profound and attractive, and is a precious wealth for the Chinese people. During study tours, schools can combine local humanistic resources to allow students to experience the charm of Chinese culture and build national self-confidence. When the time is right, we can also conduct exchanges and visits with friendly schools inside and outside the city, within the province, and at home and abroad, so that students can appreciate the differences in different regional cultures.

3. The theme of the great rivers and mountains of the motherland and the country, province, and nostalgia

The motherland has a vast territory, different scenery, and even more diverse customs and customs. During the study tour, students can be led to understand and feel the local landforms, animals, plants, ecological environment, customs, etc., to understand the connection between these factors, and to inspire their love for the country, hometown, and nature.

4. Science and Technology National Defense Theme

The development of science and technology has penetrated into every corner of life, and everyone enjoys the convenience brought by science and technology. During the study activities, you can explore the application of science and technology in various aspects of the development of human society by inspecting the Science and Technology Museum, Planetarium, Aerospace Museum, Modern Industry and Agriculture, etc., understand their working principles, and deepen your impression by contacting the actual life. At the same time, students can be organized to study and explore national defense knowledge, including science and technology applied in national defense, military training, etc.

5. Social Life Theme

Study and explore in-depth social life, go into society, understand different social divisions of labor, and conduct inspections on transportation, health, food, employment, etc. , experience the tremendous changes brought about by economic and social development, enhance social role experience, understand the importance of each social role, and cultivate students' sense of social responsibility.

6. Theme of physical development training

The development we want is "moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor", among which "physical" cannot be ignored. Study tour activities aimed at improving students' physical fitness can go to the wild to train physical fitness on the basis of ensuring safety, so that students can master some geographical knowledge and first aid nursing knowledge, cultivate students' ability to survive in harsh environments, and exercise their will and quality. .

There can be many themes for study tours. We can also develop study courses according to local conditions according to the actual conditions of each place, and develop courses with local characteristics, practical educational significance, and practical operation.

Notes

It should be noted that although study tours have many benefits, there are many issues that require our attention: mainly students’ travel safety issues, financial security issues and food hygiene This requires our counselors and students to work together. Counselors remind students in time before departure, during activities, and after activities. Students must follow the teacher's arrangements and study safely and in a civilized manner.

For the healthy growth of the next generation of the motherland, for the establishment of their sound personality, and for the future of the Chinese nation, let us work together with far-sighted people from all walks of life!
