Classroom teachers understand the value of taking students on field trips that provide new experiences with knowledge and visual stimulation. Some schools do not have the financial resources to provide field trips for their students. The virtual field trip has become a valuable resource for teachers and students. The internet offers a valuable resource for teachers and students by offering opportunities to visit destinations online through virtual field trips.
