  <span style="font-size:16px;"><font color="#073763">There have been many studies attempting to determine what students gain linguistically from their study abroad (SA) experiences.  In this session, I will summarize some of the main findings regarding language gains during SA.  I will also describe what appear to be conflicting findings and will explore possible reasons for these conflicts.  In most cases, these are methodological differences related to the challenges of assessment.  I will highlight several common and specific challenges associated with measuring language gains during SA and will describe future directions in terms of measurement of language gains abroad.</font></span></div>
