Delivering a Multi-Institutional Short-Term Faculty-Led Paralympic Study Abroad Program: The PyeongChang 2018 Paralympic Winter Games
Schole: A Journal of Leisure Studies and Recreation Education, v38 n1 p29-45 2023
Short-term faculty-led study abroad programs have been offered in various institutions across the United States. Despite the many program offerings, students who are interested in the niche marketplace have been experiencing limited program participation. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to introduce the use of online communication platforms in delivering a multi-institutional Paralympic study abroad experience among students from nine different universities across the United States and Canada. Specifically, this document intends to guide instructors in implementing a multi-institutional study abroad program. In addition, the paper shares thoughts on the beneficial opportunities study abroad trips can create for students who have a passion in the field of disability sport.
