Iceberg was one activity in the "Worldview Workshop". As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Understand the iceberg analogy of culture. 2. Articulate whether some aspects of culture are visible or invisible. 

Pacing was one activity used in the "Worldview Workshop". As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. "Identify three primary patterns of communication pacing. 2. Identify how people using different pacing patterns might perceive one another. 3. Identify effective ways to manage pacing patterns" (Stringer & Cassiday, 2009, p. 111).

This study chronicles the validation of the Miami University Diversity Awareness Scale (MUDAS). This instrument is designed to measure the level of student awareness about issues of culture, intergroup interaction, social justice, and the degree to which students believe these issues are presented in the college classroom. 

The evidence-based “Worldview Workshop Series” aims to increase openness to diversity and intercultural competence of faculty, staff, and administrators. Drawing from four phases of Vande Berg's (2009) transformational processes, the program contains topics on Cultural self-awareness, Awareness of others, Communication, Empathy, and Bridging cultural differences. The scores of pre- and post-test on participants’ openness to diversity were measured and compared, to examine the effect of the program on diversity awareness. Participants’ written reflections were also collected to gain rich data.
