Episode 9: What the BEVI tells us about the difference that identity makes in online versus fact to face classes

In this episode, Dr. Shalyse Iseminger discusses the difference that identity makes in online versus face to face classes. Dr. Iseminger presents comparative data from the BEVI (the Beliefs, Events, and Values Inventory) collected at the beginning and end of several semesters of AGR 201: Communicating Across Cultures, a course designed by Dr. Pamala Morris, Assistant Dean in the College of Agriculture. These data illustrate that the identity of students matters to their educational experiences and provide insights into how students from different environments may thrive or struggle more in different classroom modalities.

This post contains a link to the complete video of the webinar with Q&A, the syllabus for AGR 201, a previous presentation on the same course that occurred before the pandemic, the Transformative Learning Collection on the HubICL, and the website for the BEVI.

Episode 5: Transforming a 24-Hour Field Study Tour into a Hackathon

This episode features Dr. Svitlana Buko, researcher and consultant from Russia, and Dr. Eithne Knappitsch, professor and director of the Intercultural Management program at Carinthia University of Applied Sciences in Austria. In their presentation, Dr. Buko and Dr. Knappitsch describe how they adapted their 24-hour Cross Border Challenge into a hackathon in light of COVID-19.
