Virtual Field Trips
"Virtual field trips are just like regular field trips except that students don’t get on a bus, pack a lunch, and miss school. Rather, virtual field trips use the Internet to take students to places into the past and around the world and to enjoy experiences they wouldn’t otherwise be able to have. In my high school world history and criminal justice courses, students take frequent virtual field trips. " (Tuturice Michael. "Planning A Virtual Field Trip." http://www.caryacademy.org/historytech/Vol1no1/virtualfieldtripspage1.htm)
