Most students cannot afford to spend a semester, or a whole academic year, getting study abroad experience.
Therefore, faculty and universities are offering short term, faculty led courses in other countries. Many
universities around the world are requiring their students to get this international experience but, at the same
time, there are many misconceptions about what these short study abroad courses should accomplish from
academic, pedagogical and educational perspective. There isn’t a lot of literature on how to structure, organize
and conduct these courses at different international locations
