Educational Tour

 Tour means visiting  places.  People travel From  place to place for different purpose.  Some travel for  getting  education, some for  business, some for  entertainment and some  for visiting  religious places  as  pilgrims.

 Educational Tour or  excursion means a tour of the  students to  a certain place for a  certain time for certain purposes.

 Educational  tour is a part  of practical  learning . Students learn by reading  or listening  to teacher  and doing  very little  in the labs in our schools. But in  such  excursions, students learn  by observation.  They can  see the  real objects, people  and places. 

 Students can read  in books. But  the taste  of real  visit is far  more different  and effective than their  theoretical study. They can talk  to the people : they  can ask  them  bout  whatever things they like.

 They learn  to live  in groups . They  learnt to face difficulties  and accommodate  in a different  situation.  Together, They  can experience things.

 They may  feel freedom  while  in the tour: but together the students also  learn many  things  informally. They  can see  innumerable things  out of  their  plan.  Students learn many  informal  things So,  educational tour  is very  important for us.
