This resource, adapted from an AFS resource, with graphics by Julien Peyre from AFS France, demonstrates the benefits and risks of each stage, as well as what is required of the study abroad student to move to the next stage in their intercultural development.

Gay-Rights Movement Ventures Beyond Urban America is an activity where participants read an article about gay rights and analyze it for the IDC stages. 

Mindsets, an activity by Janet Bennett, also analyzes passages for the IDC stages. 

This publication presents a new metaphor for understanding and explaining the Intercultural Development Continuum.

This activity challenges participants to familiarize themselves with the intercultural development continuum (IDC) and understand how the orientations on the continuum manifest through people’s attitudes and behaviors. They will draw cards with various statements on them and try to identify the orientation associated with that statement.

In this activity, participants are asked questions that get them to identify the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC) stages and analyze the benefits and risks of each stage. 

This worksheet enables participants to apply the metaphor of a pendulum to their own experiences for a more robust and realistic understanding of their own intercultural competence.

One of the activities in this tool's lesson plan asks participants to analyze the movie Jojo Rabbit using the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC). 

This activity covers the five stages of intercultural competence as codified in Bennett & Hammer's Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC). Students use color-coded cues to compare the feelings, strengths & challenges of each stage, as well as the stage-appropriate skill which needs to be developed in order to move forward.

This collection includes resources by the creators of the pendulum model of intercultural competence development and maintenance.

This activity familiarizes participants with the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC) and provides opportunities for applying the five orientations of the IDC to different case studies.

These slides were part of the "Interactive (even fun!) resources for reviewing the Intercultural Development Continuum" presentation at the 2022 NAFSA Bi-regional VI and VIII in Pittsburgh, PA.
