International Context of Practice (Mexico); Experimental Learning

This course provides a framework for understanding a developing country through a comparative study with Canada. The collective responses of citizens in meeting community needs in the context of colonial legacies and contemporary global influences are highlighted in both settings. The international learning experience usually takes place during Reading Week and is complemented by two days of pre-trip learning focusing on Canadian realities and on post-trip day to reflect upon the comparative analysis. (Note: this is international experience with an on campus component)
