Integrating Risk Management as A Key Component in Short term Study Abroad Curriculum: Teacher’s Perspective

This book offers a fresh perspective on embedding risk assessment and management in short-term study abroad programs through the lens of a teacher’s experience. Aimed at teachers and administrators, it provides practical examples, strategies, and resources to effectively design, deliver, and evaluate risk as a key component of the curriculum. As demand for short-term study abroad increases, the need for effective preparation and risk management becomes paramount. This book provides essential support for those designing and delivering decentralized, short-term study abroad programs. Programs are positioned within the critical domain of risk assessment and management, through an experiential learning framework. Drawing from seminal works as well as teachers’ lived encounters, and grounded in theory and practice, each chapter offers current and fresh perspectives on integrating risk into the curriculum. Rich with templates and resources, practical examples, strategies, and paradigms, the book extends beyond traditional teacher-support structures, providing a new approach in viewing risk as a key component of, and not separate from, the study abroad curriculum.
