Nothing beats real world experience. It looks like the MMS group is being exposed to all the aspects of life/environment/politics/history/etc of South Africa. The group is learning more, and at a deeper level than they could ever hope to learn from just reading texts in a classroom a half a world away. I can't wait for the groups return so that I can "be taught" more about South Africa from all of you - the group of students will be become my teacher.
