Virtual Field Trip

« Back to Glossary Index

A Virtual Field Trip is an interactive online experience that engages and teaches students remotely. 

Virtual field trips are great experiences, no matter what learning environment you are teaching in. These trips are more cost-effective, safer, and logistically, easier to manage. 

When executed properly, a virtual field trip can be just as fun as the real thing. 

Some creative examples could include:

  • Watching a behind the scenes video of an NYC broadway theater set
  • Creating an e-learning scenario in which students visit an art museum
  • Purchasing group tickets for an actual online exhibit or demonstration

Virtual field trips are fun, engaging, and could make a great impact on your students.
