Field-based Activities

Have you considered what difference field-based experiences
have for getting students engaged in science? What do students
experience in the field compared with the classroom? Have you
surveyed students to assess the “learning quality” difference they
experience in both locations? What’s been your own experience(s)
with the quality of the learning working inside a lab/classroom
and/or field-based research?
