The proPIC Study Weeks: Experiencing Transnational Exchange
Research-publishing.net
A core element of the proPIC project is the development and implementation of the so-called study weeks: a five day face-to-face stay abroad at one of the partner institutions in which all the participating students took part. In this chapter, the authors present and discuss the results and impact of these events which took place twice during the project. In order to do so, the authors have included the overall framework of the events, as well as assorted materials developed by the project partners to present the scope of the various study weeks. Additionally, an overview of relevant literature dealing with the concept of short stays abroad in teacher education programmes will be provided. The chapter will conclude with recommendations for conducting similar activities in collaboration with international partners.
