Classroom on the Road: Designing, Teaching, and Theorizing
Out-of-the-Box Faculty-Led Student Travel explores real-world,
out-of-the-box examples of faculty-led student travel that
challenge the dominant paradigms of conventional tourism.
Contributors share teaching methods that can be adapted for a
variety of university travel scenarios and encourage students to be
responsible and thoughtful members of the global community who seek
out valuable experiences in other cultures to go beyond the
standard consumption of touristy cliches. Furthermore, this book
contributes to existing discourse about travel by going beyond
being "just" a tourist to become a person who impacts-and is
impacted by-other cultures and the commensurate politics of place.
Contributors discuss issues of cultural imperialism, economic
disparity, and responsible travel that can help protect unique
destinations from the homogenizing effects of global capitalism,
encouraging respectful and responsible travel.
