Abstract | To understand the educational value of studying abroad "requires consideration of questions of identity. Beyond greater linguistic proficiency, examination of the possible outcome has been discussed in terms of "intercultural competence". The student faces the challenge to mediate between two cultures, a task requiring qualities of resilience, tolerance of uncertainty and empathy which are rooted in the student's sense of herself. ... Based on interview data, the nature of this challenge to identity is examined through the experience of two students. The experience of a third student is described to illustrate that the challenge to identity has inner and outer aspects. The outer aspect is the unfamiliarity and strangeness of the host society, and the inner aspect is the confrontation with the unfamiliar and possibly strange within oneself. This psychological and psychosocial perspective forms the basis for a brief discussion of educational responses that will maximise the benefits of the Year Abroad." (DIPF/orig.) |
