As a consequence of globalization and internationalization, there has been a dramatic increase in the number and diversity of students who are gaining international educational experience. Making connections between contemporary study abroad research, theory, and practice, Intercultural Interventions in Study Abroad describes innovative programmes that have been designed to deepen the intercultural learning and engagement of student sojourners. In addition to reviewing the benefits and limitations of these interventions, this volume offers recommendations for further enhancements in the field.

Exploring examples of intercultural interventions in a wide variety of countries from pre- to post-study abroad, this bookhelps readers develop a critical awareness of their strengths and limitations, and provides directions for future developments in intercultural pedagogy. Written by intercultural educators and study abroad scholars from different parts of the world, each chapter describes an innovative pedagogical intervention that has been designed to enhance intercultural learning and engagement, including:

  • designing and implementing pre-sojourn intercultural workshops;
  • using guided, critical reflection to deepen students' intercultural learning and engagement;
  • monitoring class interaction to maximize intercultural learning;
  • optimizing intercultural learning and engagement abroad through online mentoring.

Truly international in scope, this text is essential for study abroad professionals who seek to enhance the intercultural development, global-mindedness, and second-language learning of students through innovative intercultural programming.
