Xinhua Commentary: Study tours should not be limited to a "visit"

Release time:Jul 01, 2024 16:43 PM

Summer vacation is approaching, and study tours have ushered in another peak season. In recent years, this new tourism model that combines "education" with "travel" and combines education with entertainment has been welcomed by primary and secondary school students and their parents. The popularity has increased, but problems have also arisen. Many parents complain that study tours are at best "just a visit".

Some study tours are overly commercialized, and some are even "not what they claim to be", which is suspected of defrauding consumers. Some institutions rigidly attach the "study tour" label to tourism products and sell them at high prices; some institutions seize parents' "famous school complex" and organize so-called study tours to just take photos and "check in" at the gates of famous universities, or even take illegal means to enter campuses, bringing adverse social impacts.

“Read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles”, study tours should not be limited to “visiting here”.

Study tours are essentially educational activities. Relevant parties should start from the development needs of the youth group, the youth's way of thinking and receptive ability, scientifically plan routes, reasonably arrange courses, and provide high-quality study tours so that children can travel, learn and gain insights from them.

All departments should work together to promote the healthy development of the market. On the one hand, according to the characteristics of study tours, special standardized service specifications should be formulated to prevent market institutions from playing "edge ball" in the name of study tours. Strengthen the supervision of relevant products in the market to safeguard the rights and interests of consumers. At the same time, urge all organizations to ensure the safety of minors and the content and quality of study tours.

On the other hand, we should actively integrate cultural and tourism resources, take the initiative to develop high-quality bases and routes, and promote the development of research and study tours in the direction of research and study practice education. At present, many places including Beijing, Henan, Guangxi, etc. are actively creating and launching a number of exemplary research and study tour high-quality routes and high-quality courses.

"Travel" is the form, "learning" is the essence. For parents, they can learn more about the brands of research and study bases, boutique routes, and boutique courses in various places before signing up to improve their identification ability. In addition, parents can also choose appropriate research and study tour products based on factors such as their children's age, interests, and personality characteristics, and guide their children to set out with questions and travel with topics, so that they can spend a wonderful and fulfilling holiday in the research and study tour.

Recently, the fraudsters have been a bit rampant. They cheat under the banner of well-known economists and ten billion level fund managers. From the perspective of fraud techniques, they fabricate fake official account, spread false information in QQ groups, and conduct illegal stock recommendation activities. Renowned economist Guan Qingyou posted helplessly, "Who could have imagined that someone would impersonate me to recommend stocks to everyone? This makes me feel embarrassed, and I don't even know the specific stocks." Recently, several well-known figures were impersonated. Renowned economist Guan Qingyou posted, "Who could have imagined that someone would impersonate me to recommend stocks to everyone. This makes me feel embarrassed.

I hope everyone will be vigilant and not be deceived. If found, report to the police as soon as possible." Guan Qingyou "

According to the New York Times website on May 31, from 1950 to 1990, the US Department of Energy produced an average of four nuclear bombs per day, which were produced in hastily built factories with few environmental measures, leaving behind a large amount of toxic radioactive waste. The report states that the most serious problem is undoubtedly in the Hanford factory area in Washington state. Engineers sent there to handle radioactive waste after the Cold War discovered 54 million gallons of highly radioactive sludge, which was produced during the production of plutonium in American atomic bombs, including the atomic bomb dropped in Nagasaki, Japan in 1945. Underground storage tanks filter out toxic waste into the Columbia River just 6 miles away, clean up these tanks and stabilize them in some way for permanent disposal, which is the most encountered in history

Recently, European data regulatory agencies have issued record breaking fines to US digital giant Meta for violating data transmission regulations and causing serious infringement on the privacy of EU citizens. This is not the first time that European regulatory authorities have issued warnings about the violations of American digital companies, and the punishment is far from the first time that Europe has strongly countered the erosion of European interests by American related companies. Data transmission is not the only topic of continuous game and competition between Europe and America, but it reflects the structural difficulties that traditional transatlantic partnerships between Europe and America have developed into an unavoidable problem. On May 22nd local time, the Irish Data Protection Commission fined Meta, the parent company of American social networking company Facebook, 1.2 billion euros for illegally transferring Facebook data from European users to the United States without authorization
