Description

With international student teaching opportunities available for preservice teachers in many undergraduate and graduate education programs, it is relevant to understand what the benefits are of traveling abroad. More importantly, in what ways can this type of experience help teacher candidates upon returning from an international student teaching experience. The purpose of this research is to learn how international experience can benefit teacher candidates. This research can help determine what elementary classroom practices regarding cultural diversity are implemented in the U.S. elementary classroom upon return. This research will provide relevant information for teacher candidates to weight the benefits of the international experience. With elementary schools in the U.S. becoming more diverse, teacher candidates much develop strategies to teach these students appropriately and adequately.
