Preservice teachers’ understandings of social justice within the context of study abroad programs

From the abstract: "Drawing on previous studies and examples from an ongoing study of 6 annual, short-term study abroad programs, this article explores how [pre-service teachers] PSTs reported experiences related to social justice and suggests implications for study abroad programs in teacher education. [The authors] propose that the context, curriculum, and co-curricular activities of a study abroad program have the potential to impact how PSTs conceptualize social justice and that an intentional focus on context-specific issues of social justice from a critical perspective has the potential to both broaden and deepen their conceptualizations."
