Higher Education in the Ukraine
Sally Jackson spent six weeks in Zhytomyr, Ukraine interning at the Zhytomyr State Pedagogical University. She assisted with developing a civic education center (identifying resources, space layout, creating posters, etc.) and organizing a public school teachers' summer institute on using civic education to develop writing skills, in which she also taught two sessions. 
Sally lived with a local assistant principal and her mother and daughter. This allowed her to experience the typical daily routine, including shopping at the open-air markets.
Members of the department took Sally on several trips around the area, including a day long visit to Kiev with a local historian, a visit to the multiple cultural and industrial museums, and the homes of famous writers and astronauts/rocket engineers.
