Exploring Perceptions of Study Abroad in ASEAN

This presentation summarizes findings from a Japanese government-funded study, intended to explore the study abroad experience in ASEAN. Results reflect the opportunity to develop intercultural communicative competences and the benefits of practicing English as a lingua franca (ELF) in ASEAN. Attendees will be introduced to ideas for integrating elements of the ELF model into any L2 classroom while increasing enthusiasm in study abroad opportunities, especially to outer-circle countries.
