Peer Group Consultation: Strategies and Ideas for the International Classroom

Wednesday, May 11, 2022, 10-13 (9-12 am CET)

In this virtual group consultation, we will reflect on the challenging situations that participants typically experience in their teaching contexts involving international students. Together as a group, our aim will be to develop possible solutions.

Learning outcomes

  • Have developed strategies to overcome challenges typical of teaching situations involving international students as well as arising between local and international students
  • Have gained insight into interculturally varying perspectives
  • Have experienced the method of peer consultation as a means to develop and improve teaching in their own department

Activities: Each participant brings their own question / case into the group and we choose three that we would like to brainstorm about.

Target Group: All teaching staff who teach diverse groups

Trainers: Dr. Annette Glathe, Dr. Ulrike Homann, Sophie Belanger

Contact person: Annette Glathe, email [email protected]
