Objectives of the Re-Entry Orientation
Students will be able to ….
-
Identify the skills they have developed during their exchange experience and celebrate how their personal culture has changed.
-
Recognize that the end of the exchange brings many emotions and saying goodbye is difficult.
-
Make a plan for departure and saying goodbye.
-
Be prepared for re-entry to their home countries by examining the re-entry process and adaptation strategies.
