This course will look at the potential of study abroad programs for internationalizing the curriculum. It will consider the benefits and pitfalls of study abroad programs and will develop a set of criteria for assessing their successful implementation. Additionally, the course will provide students an opportunity for going on a two to three week long study trip to a destination to be announced once negotiations have been completed. On this trip, students will participate in lectures and workshops and will visit schools and other educational institutions and may even seek to negotiate with local teachers a study abroad program for their own students. Although every effort will be made to secure funding for this option, GSE students should plan to meet much of the costs associated with this trip themselves. The students unable to participate or uninterested in this option will be offered an alternative on-line course, drawn from a list of courses on related topics offered by other departments, colleges or even universities abroad.
