Objectives

  • I enjoy learning about other cultures and am willing to try new things.
  • I want to learn about the educational system and values in St. Lucia and experience something outside my comfort zone in hopes that it will make me a stronger, more open minded teacher.
  • I will look at the different teaching styles, curriculum, goals/objectives, classroom management and the general school system in St. Lucia so that I can see the cross cultural differences and similarities.
  • I want to discover more about myself and leave with some useful strategies/philosophies that I can use back in Wisconsin, both personally and academically.
  • I will take advantage of all opportunities while I am in St. Lucia and take the time to learn about and appreciate a culture and way of life that is different from my own.
