Join us for a reflective panel discussion featuring finalists for this year’s Award for Excellence in Education Abroad Curriculum Design. Panelists will discuss the ways they model the characteristics of high impact practices in their education abroad program and curriculum designs to increase participation in education abroad and advance global learning outcomes. They will also examine their views on their roles as cultural mentors and how this type of educational labor shows up in their design decisions, assessment work and their relationships with students and onsite collaborators.
