It allows the reader to gain insight into what it really takes to prepare and lead students in such experiences both domestically and internationally. The book can be used as a guide to planning, but also demonstrates the use of experiential learning theory throughout these experiences and especially the importance of reflection by the students on what they are experiencing.
