Inhalt: Aim: We are keen to welcome students from Mainz and all over the world to participate in this comprehensive intercultural training. Students taking this course will team up in small groups to reflect on their own cultural background, how it is perceived by others, and how they in turn perceive habits shaped by different cultures. Content: The course will take place in three block sessions taught by Ellen Rana, a professional intercultural trainer and academic from Koblenz University of Applied Sciences. Students get an insight into the basic concepts and theories of intercultural communication and apply their knowledge to their own intercultural experiences throughout the semester. Students are sensitized to pitfalls lurking when encountering different cultures, are enabled to actively shape their own presence in international contexts and to engage successfully in intercultural situations. Course work: Assisted by trained tutors, the course work will consist of unique and practical assignments where international and JGU-students reflect on their intercultural experience in Mainz by keeping a learning journal and choosing from a variety of creative options including: filmed or animated videos, vlogs, photo journals, blogs or infographics.
