The Dark Side of Mobility – One Year of Experience, Repeated 20 Times
In 1996 Ulrich Teichler wrote an analysis of Academic Mobility, pointing out that not enough attention was paid to ’the dark side of mobility’. Two decades later little has changed. Instead of understanding the damage caused by ignorance of complexities facing students and professionals, we see the same stories every year. Instead of 20 years of experiential learning many have one year of experience, repeated 20 times.
