Teaching Across Cultures

January 24, 2025 10:00AM - 12:00PM

Contact: Anne Baker, amb@msu.edu

Two-hour session.

In this training we will examine a few models of culture and look at some past seminal research on national cultures (Hofstede and the GLOBE project) that helps us make cross-national comparisons for a variety of culture dimensions. We will examine U.S. culture through these lenses and analyze how different behaviors, actions, and attitudes in educational settings can be tied to their underlying beliefs and values.

Objectives: After this workshop, learners will be able to:

• Define 3 kinds of culture

• Relate 2 different models of culture to your own national culture

• Connect behaviors, attitudes, and events in the U.S. to possible underlying beliefs and values.

Core Competencies: Educational Delivery and Technology Adoption and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
