This session presents the findings of a linguistic analysis of WhatsApp text messages sent between 40 American in-service teachers who were participating in a study abroad program in the Czech Republic. The Linguistic Inquiry Word Count (LIWC) analytics tool was employed to generate descriptive statistics of these texts and summary variables related to participants' analytical thinking, clout, authenticity, and emotional tone. Recommendations are provided for better prompting participants to reflect on cultural experiences and themes.
