GlobalFest

Wednesday 10th July 2019

CQSD's exciting summer T&L event, GlobalFest 2019, aimed to explore what internationalisation of the curriculum and student experience means in practice. Keynote Speaker , Emeritus Fellow at Leeds Beckett University and National Teaching Fellow, delivered the plenary on the day and ran a workshop around effective practice in intercultural group work.

The event included a series of Lightning talks to showcase good practice at Reading, and an international-themed marketplace, showing some of the many ways that the Curriculum Framework graduate attribute of Global engagement and multicultural awareness is purposefully integrated and embedded in our provision.

Globalising the Curriculum: What it means, why it matters, how to make a difference

Dr David Killick, Emeritus Fellow, Leeds Beckett University.

The internationalisation agenda is often characterised as a project to boost institutional reputation and income generation, but it can also be presented as a serious academic enterprise, focussed on student experience and outcomes. Globalising the curriculum seeks to bring together the equity and social justice agendas from multicultural and international contexts to enable all students to gain greatest benefit from their university education and from the peers who share their journey. This presentation will argue that how our variously diverse students engage together through their disciplinary curriculum has significant impacts upon their capabilities as graduates in and for a multicultural and globalising world.

''It hurts" An interactive workshop exploring effective intercultural group work

Dr David Killick, Emeritus Fellow, Leeds Beckett University

Our learning environments offer rich opportunities for learning among diverse others, yet research in universities around the world repeatedly highlights painful experiences and missed opportunities. In this highly interactive workshop we will experience, explore, and reflect upon intercultural learning. Participants will develop a clearer appreciation of how intercultural group work might be designed to enhance student collaboration and learning. It may hurt, a little.
