About this book
Reviews
“This volume gets down to the nitty-gritty of second language study abroad. The editors have been resolute in ensuring that all contributions focus on programming, pedagogy and participant engagement at the micro level of experience. At the same time, big issues are not ignored, mainly through reference to other research and practice in the field and connecting with current conceptualizations of study abroad more broadly. The chapters are immensely readable, covering a wide range of regional contexts, student and teacher participants, and programme designs. They are also instructive, providing plenty of ideas for further research and programme development, all summarised very nicely by the editors in their introductory chapter. This book is a very timely contribution.” (Gary Barkhuizen, Professor and Head of School, University of Auckland)
