| Summary: | Today’s younger generation are keen to be exposed to the rapid growth of technology. Their attention seems to be geared more towards gadgets and electronic devices including phones and tablets. Moreover, with the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and hundreds of Apps, the students learn almost everything from the screen or through virtual reality instead of experiencing it through the real world. Taking it as a challenge to do something distinctive, a group of students from the Faculty of Sports Science and Recreation and their lecturer decided to take a tour at Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) which is in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur. Although the main purpose of the tour is to accomplish the subjects’ requirements, the students learnt something more precious beyond that. The tour provided students with opportunities to gain knowledge from the experts and share experience, which they otherwise would not be able to obtain in the classroom. In fact, when it comes to visiting places for leisure or recreation, students prefer to go to modern, attractive, and new places rather than visiting something that is more related to nature, history, culture, or traditions. |
