摘要
In this article, the authors assessed results from a cultural awareness instrument administered to business student participants at the beginning of a summer study abroad program in London, England, and then again at the program's conclusion. The data indicated that the program enhanced cultural awareness and personal development. Moreover, additional information from a student survey reinforced the results of the cultural-awareness instrument. Copyright (C) 2006 Heldref Publications
