Adapting Pedagogy for Multi-cultural Contexts
Track
Research Proposal / Learning Theories and Pedagogy
Abstract
Evaluating effectiveness of one’s teaching is challenging, but how does one design an approach to assess effective pedagogy adaptation prior to teaching in a diverse cultural context?
Based upon semester-long feedback from Central European students enrolled in social science courses, I assessed the effectiveness of my pedagogical adaptations. Research findings integrated into an evaluative framework will stimulate discussion regarding challenges of designing and implementing effective teaching strategies for cross-cultural teaching experiences. A participatory exercise will allow attendees to reflect on their adaptability to pedagogical challenges. An anticipated outcome is insight on implementing ongoing evaluation and adapting pedagogy for cross-cultural settings.
