Looking for Sabbatical Opportunity

Dear Service Learning Pros:

I'm a faculty member at the University of Vermont (UVM) looking for an
overseas sabbatical opportunity to study and research academic service
learning.

I have a Ph.D. from Indiana University in adult education with minors in
educational psychology and public administration.  I teach required
courses in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at UVM--public
speaking, computer applications, a seminar for all First-Year students.  
On the graduate level I teach organization development and behavior in the
Masters of Public Administration program.  I also chair a college
committee that is implementing new core competencies (based on knowledge,
skills and values) into our college curriculum.

I am interested in incorporating more experiential learning into my
courses and the curriculum of our department/college.

As you can see, I am a generalist at heart and have lots of interests.
Any ideas for an overseas sabbatical out there?  Thanks.

Thomas F. Patterson, Jr.
