摘要：Participation in an international study program provides students with invaluableexposure to another culture and a multitude of academic and life experiences. Rapid advances incommunication technologies now make it possible for students to share these experiences withtheir support network at home as they occur. The responsibility of doing so by means of a webpage built on-location 1) motivates students to increase their awareness of, and participation in,their surroundings, 2) changes how students view their surroundings and activities in which theyparticipate, 3) increases content learning, 4) extends the number of people involved in theinternational study program, and 5) results in a professional written and visual documentary.Faculty involved in supporting an on-location web site are advised to develop the web site priorto the trip, ensure the equipment and internet access can support the task, improve their computerliteracy, and exercise flexibility and patience.
