Field trips provide valuable learning opportunities for career exploration.
However, some students with disabilities face barriers to traditional field trips,
such as limited school budgets, lack of accessible transportation, and inadequate
staff support (Meezan & Cuffey, 2012; Placing & Fernandez, 2001). During the
pandemic, we collaborated to create a virtual field trip that included opportunities
for middle and high school students at WSSB and our own graduate students at
PSU to construct inclusive learning experiences.
