Workshop
Time:
Intercultural Communication and Teaching: Understanding Each Other
Date:

CIRTL Online
American universities host large numbers of international students pursuing doctoral degrees, many supported by teaching undergraduates. And, increasingly, those undergraduate students are themselves international students. These demographics require that we all think about intercultural communication and the role it plays in teaching. In this webinar, we will examine how intercultural communication theories can shed light on the interaction between teachers and students, particularly when differences in culture play a major role in the ways we teach and learn. We’ll also consider how intercultural communication theories can help teachers understand and better respond to student needs, and we’ll look for ways to bridge cultural gaps that may impede learning.
