SUMMARY:Teaching in Multicultural Learning Environments
DESCRIPTION:With the rapid increase in globalisation, cultural diversity an
 d intercultural contact are part of daily life, especially in the universi
 ty context. The number of international students at German universities is
  growing every year, enriching the interactions among students and staff a
 nd enabling ‘Internationalisation at Home’. On the other hand, it also
  highlights the need for cultural literacy and intercultural competence, i
 n order to prevent misunderstandings and promote development of positive r
 elationships and dialogue. This seminar therefore focuses on culture and c
 ommunication, first creating awareness of the participants’ own cultural
  imprints and resulting communication patterns and then using this as the 
 foundation to reflect on other cultural backgrounds and communication. We 
 will then use the insights to further develop their sensitivity for possib
 le hurdles in order to work on strategies to counteract these. The aim is 
 for the participants to acquire a greater ability and range of approaches 
 to foster appropriate communication in intercultural interaction situation
 s that they regularly encounter, such as the classroom, tutorials, consult
 ation hours etc.
