The Benefits of Multiple Arts-Based Field Trips
Florick, Laura; Greene, Jay P.; Levenberg, Rebecca; Pogue, Rebecca
Phi Delta Kappan, v102 n8 p26-29 May 2021
The near-term social-emotional and academic benefits of arts-based field trips has been well documented, but a new study shows that multiple arts-based field trips can have positive effects that endure for multiple years. Laura Florick, Jay P. Greene, Rebecca Levenberg, and Rebecca Pogue describe a partnership between a school district and arts center in Atlanta in which students go on three field trips during the school year. Researchers sorted students into groups, with some attending all three field trips and others attending only one. Student surveys and school data provide evidence of the benefits of going on multiple field trips.
