Cultivating Global and Intercultural Competencies

Abstract

This concluding chapter addresses the practical implications of my findings for the internationalization of campuses and the preparation of “globally competent” graduates.¹ In particular, I focus on the design, delivery, and documentation of study abroad programs for L2 learners. Drawing on the case studies presented in Chapters 4–6 and the theories discussed in Chapters 1, 2, and 7, I suggest concrete steps that can be taken to enhance the global and intercultural competencies of students, both on home soil and abroad.
