Field Trip Organization 101
ISA Office is pleased to invite you to a presentation on fieldtrip organization offered by an experienced teacher and school administrator:
听
Field trips are a great way to promote learning outside of a formal classroom setting, but how do you plan them and what are your responsibilities as a teacher? My name is Brian Swirsky and I have been a teacher and an administrator at John Rennie high school for the past 17 years. During that time, I have organized and taken students on over 50 field trips. These include local, Provincial, National, and International trips ranging from half day to two week long adventures and numbering anywhere from 10 students to 110 students...all of whom are your responsibility as a teacher. Being prepared and well organized is crucial, as well as crisis management and trouble shooting, but first, you have to know how to plan and get approval for your trip. All of these elements I have learned (some of them on the fly) and want to share with you because there can be no field trips without dedicated, courageous teachers.
Sincerely,
Brian Swirsky
