• Preparation: Do not conduct an open field survey. One of the most popular trips of Field Trip Factory connects students with professional chefs to explore food science. Singer said the teacher should spend a few days talking about food labels, basic chemistry and measurements before traveling. Likewise, after traveling, the teacher should tell the students what they mean for them and ask them to write down what they have learned. • Social media use: Smithsonia is hosting an online conference where students question museum curators, Norby says. Most local destinations now have Facebook or Twitter accounts, so use them to connect students and staff before, after, or during the trip. Norby encourages students to post about their experiences, take pictures and share what they learn with friends.
