COCO021: What's in Your Shoebox? Unpacking Your Study Abroad Experience

Offered 26S (10A)

Cultural anthropologist Bruce La Brack uses the term "shoeboxing” to describe what is often done with study abroad experiences: the entire experience is put in a mental "shoebox," tucked away in the closet of the mind, taken out only rarely for periodic show-and-tell reminiscing. When we want to share stories about the time away or how we’ve changed, it can be hard to find folk who really want to listen.What’s in Your Shoebox?aims to rectify this. The class has two primary goals; 1) to provide you with the opportunity to revisit, unpack, and deeply reflect upon your recent study abroad experience, and 2) to identify creative, practical, and meaningful ways to apply this new knowledge and awareness.
