Teaching Across Cultures
April 8, 2026 12:00PM - 1:30PM
In this training we will examine models of culture (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. We will discuss strategies for reaching learners from a variety of personal and national cultures.
Objectives: After this workshop, learners will be able to:
- Define 3 kinds of culture
- Relate 2 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 Culture, Access and Belonging
