When we combine global learning with collaborative work, shared intellectual pursuits, learning communities, and more, these practices reinforce each other, exerting a multiplier effect that can potentially result in the most intense learning experience our students will have. It can energize and inspire them for the work they will continue to undertake on their home campus. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt thus becomes crucial for us to identify or design high-quality programs that will achieve these goals. Moreover, we need to reimagine off-campus study as an integrated portion of the undergraduate arc--one that begins well before our students depart and continues long after they return. In this way, we help them understand the interconnectedness not only of the world, but also of their own education. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the same time, the authors recognize material constraints and educational imperatives. Off-campus study costs money; its complexity makes it difficult to assess; it overlaps increasingly with internships and civic engagement; and by its nature, it is more subject to external forces than the on-campus experience. In careful, practical ways \u003ci\u003eIntegrating Worlds\u003c\/i\u003e advances suggestions for dealing with these issues. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book urges educators to go beyond the episodic ways we currently link on-campus curricula to off-campus experience. While of interest to specialists in international or intercultural education, it speaks most directly to faculty, deans and provosts--many of whom may have little (or dated) experience of study abroad and who thus feel unprepared to address this issue of pressing importance. As our disciplines and institutions face the complexities of a rapidly changing world, this book seeks to fuel the necessary conversations.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49699982377233,"sku":"DVDB000BB1926VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53423619047697,"sku":"CINB000BB1926G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B000BB1926.jpg?v=1751067056"},{"product_id":"yes-is-the-answer-what-is-the-question-book-cameron-mitchell-9781940858715","title":"Yes is the Answer! What is the Question?","description":"\"One of the best business memoirs of all time ...\" - Forbes      Cameron Mitchell’s “dish room to board room story” began when he was 16-years-old and started working as a dishwasher at a local Columbus, Ohio steakhouse. Two years later, when Mitchell was working as a line cook during a chaotic shift change, he had an epiphany. He realized he loved the restaurant business and set out to make it his lifelong career and knew he wanted to be the president of a restaurant company one day.      That evening he put pen to paper to map out his career goals, waking his mother in the middle of the night to share them with her. Those goals – to attend the prestigious Culinary Institute of America (CIA), to become an executive chef by age 23, to be a restaurant general manager by age 24, and ultimately to be president of a company by the age of 35 – eventually were the benchmarks that would set the course of his restaurant industry career.      In 2008, Mitchell’s prominence in the industry increased exponentially when he guided the sale of two of his most popular concepts – Mitchell’s Fish Market and Mitchell’s Steakhouse, a total of 22 restaurants – to Ruth’s Hospitality Group for $92 million. To this day, CMR remains independent and privately held recognizing nearly $200 million in annual revenue from its 34 restaurants and catering division. This book tells the story of Mitchell's rapid rise, his rags to riches story and lessons that any entrepreneur or anyone can learn from it.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50477421658385,"sku":"CIN1940858712G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50627661299985,"sku":"CIN1940858712VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51053228130577,"sku":"NIN9781940858715","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52680040087825,"sku":"NLS9781940858715","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52994266562833,"sku":"GOR010164590","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1940858712.jpg?v=1769076007"},{"product_id":"phoenix-from-the-ashes-book-cameron-mitchell-9781921666100","title":"Phoenix from the Ashes?","description":"\u003cb\u003eWith full captions explaining the different species, behavior, and feeding habits, \u003ci\u003eSharks \u0026amp; Underwater Predators\u003c\/i\u003e is a lively examination of these elemental killers.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e There are more than 1,000 species of sharks and rays, with new species discovered every year. Through their evolution, sharks have shaped our oceans into the rich habitats we know today. As apex predators, sharks play an important role in the ecosystem by maintaining the species below them in the food chain, helping remove the weak and sick, and keeping the ocean and fish populations healthy. Other deadly predators of the deep, such as the box jellyfish, lionfish, and giant octopus, are also to be feared. Did you know the stonefish is the most venomous fish species to swim in our oceans? Better not get too close--it has 13 dorsal fin spines that release deadly toxins when the fish gets into threatening situations. Learn about the dwarf lantern shark, which is so small it can fit in the palm of your hand; or the whale shark, which grows up to 40 feet in length and is the largest known fish species in the oceans today; or the great white shark, the oceans' top predator and capable of chewing up dolphins and seals with its 300 teeth.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52672917340433,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52672917897489,"sku":"NLS9781921666100","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781921666100.jpg?v=1762295767"},{"product_id":"the-high-chaparral-the-final-season-dvd-0826663202175","title":"The High Chaparral: The Final Season","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53419264377105,"sku":"CINB07SWQ29K6G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0826663202175.jpg?v=1776368561"},{"product_id":"trapped-alive-dvd-0760137245186","title":"Trapped Alive","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53420946850065,"sku":"CINB07P7M76BYG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/760137245186.jpg?v=1776374966"},{"product_id":"blood-and-black-lace-dvd-0760137720690","title":"Blood and Black Lace","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53429074624785,"sku":"CINB00SA645LQG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/760137720690.jpg?v=1776405043"},{"product_id":"silent-scream-dvd-0738329235871","title":"Silent Scream","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53577412804881,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53577413230865,"sku":"CINB07J3GXNXLG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0738329235871.jpg?v=1779289229"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-cameron-mitchell.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
