Are student field trips an essential part of the Ford PAS program?
Coordinated Learning Experiences (CLEs), including some field trips, are various types of learning experiences that link Ford PAS students’ classroom learning with the workplace, higher education, and the community. Most Ford PAS modules integrate CLEs into students’ learning, and the Ford PAS Web site lists possible CLEs for each module. In addition to field trips, CLEs include speaker and expert visits to classrooms, as well as mentoring and job-shadowing experiences. The Business/Education Advisory Council (BEAC) for your program may be able to help with fundraising efforts to cover transportation and other costs associated with field trips. CLEs are considered essential components of the Ford PAS program, however, and we encourage you to make every effort to assure that students have a range of these experiences.
