My View On Study Tour

In recent years, many primary and middle schools have been organizing study tours for students so that they can have a better understanding of life and society. Some students are crazy about such tours while others show their great concerns.

Personally, I think study tours play a critical role in developing students’ study interests. Most of the time, students acquire knowledge and skills from textbooks. By walking out of the campus, they can learn through their own experiences and observations. They can understand better about what they have learned from textbooks. Therefore their motivation and enthusiasm for study is greatly inspired. Besides, studying tours contributes a lot to shaping a student's life values and personalities. They become more confident in getting along with others, living in harmony with nature and admiring traditional culture.

Of course, we must put safety in the first place in the course of study four, which is also the major concern of our parents and schools.
