"The culture of the United States has been nourished by the arrival of new citizens from every part of the globe. For this reason, the nation's cultural roots are spread out around the world. Traveling abroad not only deepens our understanding of the places we visit; it helps us to better understand the United States. This is especially true of future teachers, who will in their professional lives be called upon to help children from a wide variety of cultures find their own unique way of becoming Americans."
