As a result of using this media resource, participants will be able to: 1. Identify motivations behind "first impressions" among students in higher education. 2. Analyze the stereotypes that prevented or facilitated communication between the students in the video. 3. Draw conclusions from the video in order to identify strategies about how to suspend judgment and reach out to others.
