Lemmons, Kelly K.; Brannstrom, Christian; Hurd, Danielle – Journal of Geography in Higher Education, 2014
Traditionally, repeat photography has been used to analyze land cover change. This paper describes how repeat photography may be used as a tool to enhance the short-term study abroad experience by facilitating cultural interaction and understanding. We present evidence from two cases and suggest a five-step repeat photography method for educators…
