As a result of this reflection, participants will: 1. "Keep a record of [their] language learning while abroad." 2. "Take ownership of [their] language learning, so as to increase [their] motivation and likelihood of continuing with the language upon return." 3. "Reflect on the linguistic, sociolinguistic, and sociocultural aspects of language learning in context" (Ogden, 2009).
