Education Abroad Video Contest

Traveling widens the lens of your perspective. Show us the world through your lens with the Education Abroad Video Contest and unleash your storytelling skills as you journey through your study abroad experiences.   

Below you can find the categories with a few example questions and prompts you can use to ask yourself when you are gathering content during your study abroad program:  

• First-Time Abroad
• In The Field
• A Day in a Life
• Culture

• First-Time Abroad - All the first-time international travelers, this one’s for you! How was your experience when you first arrived in the host country versus the last couple days in the host country? What did you learn from going abroad? What cultural adjustments did you experience? What would your current traveler-self tell your past yet-to-have-travelled self? What would you do again or do differently for your next adventure?
  
  
• In The Field - We love to see our KSU Owls putting their talents and learning to use. During your program, do you encounter people in your chosen field of study? Why not interview them to understand how they function in your field of study in the host country? Or conduct a comparative analysis to understand how similar and different the fields are in the host country and the U.S.? You can also share what you’ve learned about your field of study while showing us you in the field.
  
  
• A Day in a Life - What does your average day look like abroad? Where do you eat your meals? Is there a certain route you take to get to class or the excursion? What transportation do you take? Do you run any errands? Go shopping? See a sporting event? Go to a cafe? Do you meet up with friends?  Do you have a routine to get you ready for your travel that day? Take us with you for a day and show us around town!
  
  
• Culture - Are there any landmarks you would like to share about? What about unique cuisine that can only be found in that country? Are there any sporting traditions you noticed when abroad? Is there something special about the local community and their language or family life? Give us a peek inside the culture in which you are immersing yourself!
