Supporting Graduate Teaching Assistants' Intercultural Competencies | Seed Grant 2021
Given the prominent role of graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) in preparing pre-service teachers to be culturally relevant educators, [the authors] developed a series of online learning modules for GTAs in a College of Education to support their intercultural competency development. [The authors] developed the Introduction to Cultural Competency in Education online learning modules with two primary frameworks: (a) the Culture Cycle (Hamedani & Markus, 2019), which conceptualizes culture by ideas, institutions, interactions, and individuals; and (b) the Intercultural Development Continuum (Hammer, 2012), which supports individuals to reflect on their intercultural competencies and identify areas of growth, progressing from denial, polarization, minimization, acceptance, to adaptation.
