Course Contents/Objectives/Teaching Method/Intended Learning Outcome
This course focuses on the deep cultural learning and personal growth that can result from adjusting to life in another country. We will learn about the psychology of adjusting to foreign experiences. We will see that experiences abroad can be either deep or shallow. We will learn about the impact of living abroad on our values and identity. Each student will interview someone about their intercultural experiences and analyze and present the results. The ultimate goal is for students to get the most out of intercultural experiences.
