Beschreibung

In this online Zoom event we reflect on some of the intercultural issues that can challenge newcomers at Goethe University. These might include misunderstandings that can’t be blamed on language alone.  First we think about our own cultural backgrounds. We remind ourselves that other lifestyles are possible. We think about the notion of culture and what it might involve. Finally we look for shared values in the community at Goethe University and among our neighbors in Frankfurt a. M. The goal is to build an ability to recognize and appreciate what is shared and also what is different.

Language of Instruction: English

Aims:

After successful attendance, the participants will be able to...

  • reflect on own intercultural experience, 
  • assess own intercultural insights, 
  • assess the function and use of intercultural skills.
