摘要
This scoping review summarizes and analyzes 82 empirical articles on preservice teacher (PST) study abroad of at least three weeks in duration and featuring an education field experience. Our analysis found that most studies focused on cross-cultural/intercultural awareness, understanding, competence, and/or communication, and included small sample sizes of undergraduate PSTs. Findings suggested that study abroad programs with field experiences facilitate growth in PSTs' knowledge, skills, and dispositions. Limitations to PST gains were apparent, suggesting that study abroad experiences run the risk of reinforcing stereotypes and ethnocentrism. We identify gaps in the literature and offer recommendations for future research.
