AAC&U-CILMAR Global Learning series--Openness

August 7, 2024, 12:00pm-1:30pm EDT
Facilitators: Kris Acheson-Clair, CILMAR; Horane A. Diatta-Holgate, University of Notre Dame

Openness microcredential

Intercultural Openness is one of the requisite attitudes individuals should develop in order to engage in effective and appropriate communication across various cultural contexts and situations (Deardorff, 2006, 2009). In this opening session of the 2024-2025 AAC&U-CILMAR Global Learning Webinar Series we will discuss Intercultural Openness as defined on the AAC&U VALUE rubric for Intercultural Knowledge and Competence as well as explore experiential activities and different ways to assess individual's development of this construct. As a result of participating in this session, attendees will be able to: describe intercultural openness and its relevance in their particular teaching or training context, identify a specific experiential learning activity they can use or adapt in order facilitate their learners' developing intercultural openness, and select an appropriate method or tool for assessing intercultural openness in a way that aligns with their outcomes for learners.

A complete lesson plan is here.
