What is Virtual Field Trip

This chapter deals with the possibilities of place-based education through virtual field trips and strategies to realize them. These are based on the environmental educational value of the experience in a certain place, the geography of the field trip, and the merits of an environmental education method. In video content production, the selection of a place and the composition of the story is very important. In addition to the story of the place, the narration of the content can supplement the actual field trip by including the fieldwork skills of the outdoors. Video content has the effect of combining various types of media so it can be effectively used along with field trips. Virtual field trips using video content have inherent limitations compared to outdoor field trips, but they can be used for place-based education by preparing a plan and support system for more effective blended learning.
