The entry defines “study abroad” and notes a significant increase in the number of tertiary students gaining some form of international educational experience. It then identifies external elements (e.g., program variations, host receptivity) and individual factors (e.g., motivation, agency) that can lead to differences in the developmental trajectories of foreign language students who study abroad. Recent advances in study abroad research, such as case studies and holistic, longitudinal investigations, have drawn attention to the need for pedagogical interventions to optimize the language and intercultural learning of student sojourners. More research is needed to provide direction for ways to enhance study abroad learning.
