Abstract

The paper examines the potential value of their cross-cultural study experience to international students studying social policy in the UK and draws on a small exploratory study, focusing on Korean students, to consider how the cross-cultural experience may be enhanced to enable students to develop a critical awareness of their own and their host country's culture and social policy.
