This collection provides self-directed training resources on embedding portable intercultural learning modules (PIM), small learning units focused on one or two elements of intercultural competence and/or diversity and inclusion, into your curriculum. In this case, the specific topic of intercultural competence is tricky communication, integrating the intercultural competency of communication.

PIM are turnkey solutions that address the needs of instructors or co-curricular leaders who don't see themselves as experts in these areas. PIM can be embedded within disciplinary course content, and multiple PIM can be integrated throughout a program of study to support learners' development of intercultural competence more systematically.

CILMAR offers all Portable Intercultural Modules (PIM) through Brightspace. The Tricky Communication PIM is also offered through Moodle and Canvas.
