Abstract | Ideas and approaches are suggested for the orientation of secondary students involved in the international/intercultural programs sponsored by the American Field Service (AFS). There are seven chapters, including chapter I, the introduction. The second chapter contains a framework for AFS orientations. Chapter III contains pre-departure orientation activities dealing with lifestyles and values for students, host families, and natural families. Activities for orientation on the topics of personal adjustment to a new culture, understanding a new community, host culture value orientations, summarizing an AFS experience, and preparing for the return home are suggested in the fourth chapter. Also provided are activities to help parents prepare for their child's return. Chapters V and VI contain activities for post-return orientations and some additional, very brief orientation activities for all phases of the experience. An annotated bibliography concludes the handbook. The suggestions found in this edition of the handbook do not replace those found in other editions, but add to them. (RM) |
