| WLC 080 - THE STUDY ABROAD EXPERIENCE I |
|
This course prepares students for their study abroad
experience through familiarization with the 10 most
important cultural stress factors (cultural differences,
ethnocentrism, cultural immersion, cultural isolation,
language, prior cultural experience, expectations,
visibility and invisibility, status, and power and control;
Paige [1993]). Students' examining their own identity and
culture is integral to this familiarization process.
Students will also examine their own learning styles so as
to facilitate their increased competence in language and
culture. Finally, students plan ahead for their re-entry
into the Drake environment.
