Book excerpt: THE SUCCESSFUL INTERNSHIP: PERSONAL, PROFESSIONAL, AND CIVIC DEVELOPMENT IN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING, International Edition, is more than just a resource for finding and interviewing for internships. It addresses the concerns, emotions, needs, and unique personal challenges that are the essence of an internship or field experience. It also focuses on the internship as a vehicle for personal, professional, and civic development. The authors describe in detail the path of change on which students will find themselves embarking and the challenges they will face along the way—providing clear, concrete tools that build the foundation for students' successful field/practicum experience. The book's new four-stage model of the internship process—anticipation, exploration, competence, and culmination—places the material in a meaningful framework that lends structure to students' understanding of the work they will be doing.
