| Summary: | Some arbitrary limitation of this subject has been found necessary in order to keep the discussion of field trip within reasonable bounds. In this study the field trip is used interchangeably with excursion and school journey. American writers seem to prefer the use of the term excursion while the British and German writers use the term school journey. This is attributed to the fact that Continental trips are of much longer duration. This writer prefers the simple term trip. To him excursion places the emphasis on enjoyment. Truly, a school trip can be an enjoyable as well as an intellectually, socially, and emotionally profitable experience; still he feels that the primary function of an educational field trip is not pleasure. === Typescript. === "August, 1952." === "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." === Advisor: Eugene S.
