We begin with language for understanding and validating the intercultural experiences of ALL types of students in an international school classroom: those who move frequently, those who live in one place a long time, those in their own passport country, those who speak multiple langugages, and those with a single language background - and more.
Next up are units on preventive care and supportive relationships. We discuss the role educators can play in creating safe space for students, backed with research into the experiences of globally mobile international school students.
In the final unit of this course, we tackle a very practical topic that comes up for most international educators: intercultural conflict. We discuss different cultural expectations of education, and how to handle conflicts that arise from these culture clashes - between educators, administration, parents, and students.
