Global Engagement Measurement Scale (GEMS)

This assessment measures seven aspects of global engagement: pluralism, interconnectedness, global mindedness, ambiguity tolerance (flexibility), ambiguity tolerance (new situation preference), diversity openness, host site knowledge.

To adapt this assessment for an online learning environment, facilitators/teachers can transcribe the questions from the article in the Links section of this tool into a document and sent that document to students. Alternatively, if they are using an online learning management system (such as Blackboard or Brightspace) that allows instructors to create assessments and quizzes, they can ask participants to answer questions using that platform.
