A Space for Practice: International Learning Initiatives

The Space for Practice is a new Purdue applied anthropology lab. Its purpose is to facilitate applied anthropology pedagogy and to provide programming to foster student-practitioner interactions and networking. Numerous beneficial resources on international learning and study abroad were donated by a senior practitioner. This undergraduate-led research project will involve cataloging the collection of materials, literature review on best practices for exposing students to international learning opportunities, expert interviews, and other methods. The project will result in a report for the Space for Practice planning committee with recommendations about how we can foster international learning in this educational space
