About the Book

Globetrotting or Global Citizenship? explores the broad range of international experiential learning options available to Canadian students, as well as the opportunities and the ethical dilemmas that come with them. Combining practical advice with critical examinations of international experiential learning, this essay collection is designed to help the reader to move beyond photo-ops and travel opportunities and towards striving for a deeper global citizenship. Globetrotting or Global Citizenship? is a valuable guide for students considering going abroad for experiential learning and a useful resource for those returning from such programs, as well as instructors and administrators facilitating pre-departure and return orientation sessions. Anyone taking part in international volunteering will find the reflections and analysis provided here an excellent starting point for understanding the potential impact of their time abroad.

Review :
'The wealth and depth of both academic and pedagogical experience of contributors is reflected in this edited collection...I recommend this book to anyone interested in the paradoxes and challenges of internationalization and global citizenship.' -- Vanessa Andreotti Canadian Journal of Developmental Studies vol 37:01:2016 'Those of us who conduct international learning experience have long needed a good book about the subject- one that deals with both what goes on in such ventures and how to make them more successful. Globetrotting or Global Citizenship provides some useful starting steps in that direction.' -- Jon Van Til Voluntas vol 27:04:2016
