Recently, Jiangsu Education Department announced the results of 2023 Provincial-level Community Education Projects, and the "Study Tour in Jiangsu" project of Jiangsu Open University was on the list.
The "Study Tour in Jiangsu" project, one of the key community education projects of JSOU in recent years, was officially launched in December 2017. Based on the concept of embodied cognition, the Project relies on the resources of representative industries, natural landscapes, cultural venues and public service spaces in various parts of the province, and takes "Tour" as the carrier to naturally integrate learning and education. In the past five years, the Project has sponsored 47 study tour bases, featuring red culture, farming culture, historical culture, intangible cultural heritage, industry, popular science, etc., in 12 major cities of the province. It has also developed more than 140-episode courses and over 20 VR scenes, benefiting hundreds of thousands of people. During project implementation, JSOU gives full play to its advantages of Jiangsu Learning Online platform and open university system, focuses on project design, and promotes project construction by strengthening organization, optimizing system and highlighting performance.
Next, the University will continue to dig deep into provincial resources, connect the excellent teachers, courses and online education resources of the University, improve the leading role and social benefits of the Project, and strive to extend its influence to more places in the province.
