The Role of Transformative Learning In Study abroad Experiences.

This thesis project investigates why studying abroad molds better students and is beneficial for their preparation for the workforce. Real-world experiences challenge a student’s values, assumptions, and determination, requiring them to be open-minded and independent. This project focuses specifically on how transformative learning is a valuable way to learn through experience, assessment, and reflection. The book I produced is a manifestation of the theory of transformative learning in the way that the reader must interact with a map in order to read the book.<p></p>
