Summary/Abstract: This chapter returns to some of the issues mentioned in the previous parts of the book, reflecting on them from the perspective of the participating students and accompanying teachers. We found that students’ and teachers’ perceptions of the programs sometimes differ from what program leaders and designers might expect. Regardless of the high level of students’ and teachers’ satisfaction with the programs, the chapter opens a discussion of how their expectations need to be balanced with the programs’ aims.
