摘要
This Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) research examines the effectiveness of a personal learning environment (PLE) approach in using mobile technology for experiential learning during a study abroad to China. Thematic qualitative analysis of 21 undergraduate students' written post-trip reflections on their experiences revealed valuable benefits and challenges of the PLE utilizing students' personal mobile devices in real time. Recommendations are offered for program leaders, educators, and trainers with a vested interest in learners' engagement and experiential learning. Sharing these findings with the teaching community at large makes unique and significant contributions to the SoTL literature.
