Addressing the “Study” in Study Abroad

Exchange program in Taiwan
• Students take course entitled “Crossing the
Bridge”
– Taught on line by Drexel faculty member
– Faculty member goes to Taiwan for 10 days of
intensive on site work with students
• Deliberate attempt to “help students to enhance
their intercultural competence by developing a
different lens through which to view the world,
and by generating a project which will tie the
intercultural experience to a present or future
goal (a tangible project which can be shared with
family, friends or future employers). “
