Download or read book A Dynamic Story Map for the Italian Study Abroad Program written by . This book was released on 2017. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this thesis is to develop a dynamic mapping system where a student can share his tour experiences during his/her study abroad program sponsored by San Diego State University, and structured at the Language Acquisition Resource Center. The tour experiences are called 'stories' which include pictures taken by the students at different places. These stories are then displayed on a template which is a web application created using ESRI`s story map template. The mapping system provides the facility to every user to upload stories, view or edit uploaded stories and view the dynamically updated Story Map. The pilot of mapping system was first implemented for the Study Abroad program in Florence of Summer 2015. The concept behind the project was a database that would be used to store the pictures and Comma Separated Value (.CSV) files, and would automatically be linked to the ESRI`s map. An account-based front-end is provided to every user to upload and manipulate his stories. The trouble shooting of the pilot occurred while the students were already in Florence, which resulted into two successful interventions, (I) reducing Admin intervention and (II) enabling successful completion of this component of the study abroad and improving the student feedback. A total of more than 250 stories by the students and instructor were uploaded during the Florence study abroad program. The mapping system provided a simplified and easy way to share study abroad experiences without the students needing ArcGIS logins or GIS experience.

Book excerpt: An international business expert helps you understand and navigate cultural differences in this insightful and practical guide, perfect for both your work and personal life. Americans precede anything negative with three nice comments; French, Dutch, Israelis, and Germans get straight to the point; Latin Americans and Asians are steeped in hierarchy; Scandinavians think the best boss is just one of the crowd. It's no surprise that when they try and talk to each other, chaos breaks out. In The Culture Map, INSEAD professor Erin Meyer is your guide through this subtle, sometimes treacherous terrain in which people from starkly different backgrounds are expected to work harmoniously together. She provides a field-tested model for decoding how cultural differences impact international business, and combines a smart analytical framework with practical, actionable advice.

Book Synopsis The Handbook of Practice and Research in Study Abroad by : Ross Lewin

Download or read book The Handbook of Practice and Research in Study Abroad written by Ross Lewin. This book was released on 2010-11-24. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-published with the Association for American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) If we are all becoming global citizens, what then are our civic responsibilities? Colleges and universities across the United States have responded to this question by making the development of global citizens part of their core mission. A key strategy for realizing this goal is study abroad. After all, there may be no better way for students to acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to become effective change-agents in international contexts. The Handbook of Practice and Research in Study Abroad is a comprehensive survey of the field. Each chapter eloquently conveys an enthusiasm for study abroad alongside a critical assessment of the most up-to-date research, theory and practice. This contributed volume brings together expert academics, senior administrators, practitioners of study abroad, and policy makers from across the United States, Canada and other part of the world, who meticulously address the following questions: What do we mean by global citizenship and global competence? What are the philosophical, pedagogical and practical challenges facing institutions as they endeavor to create global citizens? How is study abroad and global citizenship compatible with the role of the academy? What are the institutional challenges to study abroad, including those related to ethics, infrastructure, finances, accessibility, and quality control? Which study abroad programs can be called successful? The Handbook of Practice and Research in Study Abroad is an indispensable reference volume for scholars, higher education faculty, study abroad professionals, policy makers, and the academic libraries that serve these audiences. It is also appropriate for a wide range of courses in Higher Education Master’s and Ph.D. Programs.
