In: International studies perspectives: ISP, Band 21, Heft 4, S. 379-402
Abstract
AbstractThis article contributes to the scholarship of teaching and learning in international studies by modeling how a capstone course and multimedia project can support students' integration of study abroad experiences and learning into their academic work and personal development. The multimedia video collage capstone project empowered students to (re)examine their study abroad site and narrate an identity and globalization theme using local material and sources, from films and novels, to news broadcasts and scholarly writings. The quantitative and qualitative data presented reveals that students found that the capstone video collage project helped them to reflect critically on their study abroad experience and connect learning from abroad and at home. Finally, the course and video collage project revealed to students the subjective nature of narration and visual representation, key revelations to intercultural awareness and international studies learning.
