Maximizing Photo Narratives in Short-Term Study Abroad

By using Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter, students are building a vast digital history of their study abroad experiences with images that reveal both perceptions and misperceptions of photographer and observer. Join us to explore how to leverage those photos and visual narratives to more fully reflect intercultural development. We’ll look at qualitative research of photo narratives and see how education abroad leaders can maximize photography for meaningful reflection and assessment of students’ intercultural development.
