This worksheet allows participants to apply the metaphor of a pendulum to their own experiences for a more robust and realistic understanding of their own intercultural competence, reflect on the outside forces/events/environmental factors that impede their development of intercultural competence by pulling them towards a focus on similarity and difference, and identify strategies and behaviors they can employ to stay balanced and maintain their intercultural competence.

The worksheet is available in the Links section of this tool. The link leads to a publication in the HubICL research repository where it can be downloaded. Then, participants can complete the worksheet individually on their own time and send it to facilitators/instructors.
