This presentation investigates the attitudes of students enrolled in a long-term study abroad program which was cut short due to COVID-19. The students then faced continuing their study online in an ERT format in Japan. It will explore how student needs evolved, what challenges were identified and dealt with, and how motivation to study changed. This presentation will be of interest to Fall 2020 instructors whose students' dreams of study abroad have been interrupted.
