The Global Classroom

An Essential Guide to Study Abroad

About this book

The Global Classroom: An Essential Guide to Study Abroad (Second Edition) is a unique international studies text that provides students and practitioners with valuable resources for success in education abroad.

The Global Classroom addresses the challenges and opportunities of study abroad by encouraging participants to think about their personal, academic, and professional goals during every step of the process. Not only does it address different ways that study abroad has been re-envisioned and strengthened in the post-pandemic world, it is also intentional in its design to speak to a variety of contemporary issues and concerns. For example, the book addresses many different audiences, including appealing to historically marginalized groups about the value of study abroad, and addressing the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals at home and abroad. It explores how social media has changed how we navigate "distance" in education abroad, and a new section offers resources for mental health at home and abroad. Critically, the book also offers practitioners an academic, up-to-date, core text for pre-departure orientation programs and provides readers with tools to better link student preparation with considerations like safety, risk management, and response.
