Maximizing Study Abroad Research Project
Building on a strong
foundation of theory and practice regarding language strategies
and cross-cultural awareness, CARLA produced a guidebook
series during the third cycle of NLRC
funding (1999-2002) entitled Maximizing Study Abroad Through Language
and Culture Strategies. This series was developed to support (1)
study abroad students, (2) program professionals working with
these students, and (3) language instructors in maximizing students’
effectiveness in learning language and culture both before, during,
and after their study abroad experiences. Under a grant from USDE’s
International Research and Studies Program (2002-2005), research
has been conducted to field test the three guidebooks in the Maximizing
Study Abroad series.
