Experiential Week

Our experiential weeks allow faculty to teach their course in an urban setting that perfectly complements their course material. Teams receive all logistics, a dedicated team host, and detailed itineraries to ensure relevant hands-on learning. Using a faith-based approach, we work on all in-program logistics so you don’t have to, giving you the autonomy to teach your course and have more time to invest in your students.

Value of an Experiential Week

Imagine a classroom that enhances a student’s cross-cultural understanding and allows them to engage with diversity. Studying outside of the classroom is a high-impact practice that holds invaluable worth for a student’s learning academically, socially, and spiritually. There is no deeper way to present course material than to engage the five senses in all aspects of learning. Above all, the greatest part of the experiential week is that students get to travel with you! In-context instruction will revolutionize the manner students retain course material and in turn the way you teach.
