Lesson Plan

Source

Created by Katherine N. Yngve, CILMAR, IDA+A, Dr. Daniel C. Jones, CILMAR, and Dr. Kris Acheson-Clair, CILMAR, Purdue University, for Purdue's Engineering 397 (Intercultural Mentoring) course.

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Respond to being treated as a “stereotypical” representative of their home country. 2. Adapt to their new host culture. 3. Form testable hypotheses.
