Applied Project Learning Outcomes: Differences Between United States And International Students

The presence of international students on college campuses has been a significant source of cultural diversity and globalization of college campuses. Therefore, determining factors for successful learning experiences of international students on American campuses could result in better recruitment strategies. This paper investigates the learning experiences of students in applied project courses and compares learning outcomes of international and the U.S. students in applied courses. Results show positive impacts of applied project courses on students’ learning outcomes with better results for international students.
