A less-than-3-minute intro to a critical reflection model that can help students write intercultural reflections or help instructors steer a debrief following an experiential intercultural learning activity. 

The video in this tool (see the Links section) explains the difference between empathy and sympathy. Facilitators/instructors can assign this video as a "reading assignment" in an online learning environment. 

Free card game developed by CILMAR staff, adapted from noted interculturalist Bruce LaBrack's "What's Up With Culture" (open source) materials. As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Distinguish between three dimensions of human behavior (universal, cultural, and personal). 2. Identify the dangers of inaccurately identifying the motivations for behavior. 3. Apply this analytical skill to authentic relationships and interactions. Downloads include a lesson plan and the quiz cards.

This rubric can be used to assess any kind of intercultural reflective writing assignment, such as an essay or a blog post.
