  3. significance -stand out And whether you recognise it or not, you will be markedly different or transformed by the experience – perhaps even a different coloured goldfish. returning home 3

  4. significance -stand out People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. Butthe self is not something one finds, it is something one creates. Thomas Szasz(cited by Gordon 2009: 64) returning home 4

  5. significance -stand out returning home 5

  6. "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having neweyes." Marcel Proust discovery 6

  7. “Life begins at the end of your Comfort Zone. So if you’re feeling uncomfortable right now, know that the change taking place in your life is a beginning, not an ending.” Neale Donald Walsch discovery 7

  8. Learning itself, is not only the acquisition of knowledge, but a way of organising, making decisions and exploring our assumptions and constructing a new reality. • Ideally, sojourners should continually be undergoing this process (using the DIVE model as well?) metacognition 8

  9. Deep vs. shallow learning • Using D.I.V.E. to go deeper….. • Describe • Interpret • Verify • Explain • Think of a time when ‘deep learning’ whilst overseas... metacognition 9

  10. If a picture paints a thousand words then an experience paints a thousand pictures... visual images 10

  11. Since the advent of photography the photographic image has been regarded as an aide-mémoire. The very act of taking a photograph signals the moment as worthy of remembering and, while objects break, landscapes change, and people die, the photograph endures, allowing it to be used to remember ‘what has been’. visual images 11

  12. “I feel like that photo is a great symbol of the achievement that comes from conquering exchange.” - Liam T transformation 12

  13. It was an amazing and surreal experience to be driving a dog sledge and racing through the arctic wilderness in temperatures averaging negative 25 degrees celcius. This image represents the sense of freedom and adventure that swept over me on my exchange experience and gave me the confidence to embark on adventures such as dog sledging, snowmobiling, tobogganing on the Salzburg winter olympic track, horse riding in Iceland and snorkelling in the crack between the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates to name just a few! This picture also shows how Sweden was an antithesis to Perth in just about every way, the icy wilderness and even just the presence of snow show that I really did live on the opposite side of the world! transformation 13

  14. This was taken on that same road trip in Antelope Canyon, Arizona. I think it embodies the feeling of enlightenment that you can get when you figure something out that is foreign to you, like deciphering the NYC subway system, haha! transformation 14
