dc.description.abstractenThis article highlights an increasingly popular form of experiential learning, namely overseas exchange programs . E xperien tial learning is regarded as a valuable way to link up theoretical knowledge and practical skills in hospitality and tourism educa tion. Although some studies have addressed the importance of experiential learning, the factors influencing students’ choice o f overseas exchange programs, and the challenges and benefits of students’ experiential learning are still unclear, especially on the ov erseas exchange programs. The purpose of this study is to reveal the whole picture of overseas exchange programs by util izing experiential learning cycle theory, and further understand students’ perce p tion of overseas experiential learning By employing quantitative and qualitative methods, including questionnaire survey and in depth interviews with students who have partic ipated in the overseas exchange programs and content analysis of program information, this study analyzes the differences of factors considered by males and females in choosing overseas exchange programs, and displays the four stage learning process of exp eriential learning in overseas exchange programs and identifies two themes of challenges (living challenges and learning challenges) and five themes of benefits (cognitive development, behavio u ral change, multiple skill development, social bonding developm ent, academic competitiveness & employability enhancement) for experiential learning for students majoring in Hospitality and Tourism. The study enriches our understandings of the experiential learning cycle theory and provides insights to educators in the design of future overseas exchange programs.uk
