Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education Develops Field Experience Course Featuring '100 Years of Stories'

All-Out Effort for Kindergarten Field Trips and More

The Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education is working hard to attract field trips and school excursions to Gwangju.

On the 24th, the Gwangju Office of Education announced that it has developed various experience courses under the slogan "Shall we go on a story art trip to Gwangju?" and has started promoting them.

This project was promoted to activate school excursions and field trips to Gwangju by introducing the diverse aspects of Gwangju, in a situation where there is little information from other cities and provinces, making it rare for students to come to Gwangju for experiential learning.

The newly developed courses move away from the simple listing of historical sites and offer a variety of options tailored to the duration of the experience, such as "day trips," "1 night 2 days," and "2 nights 3 days," as well as themes like "Yangnim-dong," "Artistic Gwangju," and "City of Righteousness Gwangju." Information on festivals and accommodations is also provided to help those in charge of school excursions and experiential learning from other regions easily plan their courses to Gwangju.

The Office of Education compiled these developed courses into promotional leaflets and distributed them to education offices in various cities and provinces. On the 20th, they also introduced this at the 91st National Council of Superintendents of Education and the meeting of those in charge of creative experiential learning (field trips) from various provinces. Furthermore, they are preparing various promotional measures in cooperation with Gwangju City.

Superintendent Lee Jeong-seon said, "We invite you to Gwangju, a place for creative experiential learning where students can experience diverse culture and arts, not just simple recreational activities," and added, "We ask for your great interest so that students can come on an art trip."
