China
Study Tour Participant
The trip to China
sponsored by Global Alliance and NJ-ALPHA was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The tours of Shanghai,
Nanjing, and Changde
were amazing and the interviews with scholars and survivors of the atrocities of
the Asia-Pacific War will forever remain in my heart and mind. The colloquium
developed with fellow teachers and other members of the group was fantastic.
Many of us still keep in touch, attend meetings together, and share experiences
and methods. The knowledge gained and hands-on experiences are being used almost
daily in the classroom and in service-learning projects. The experience is
highly recommended.
