In the introductory section, we will address the fundamental principles of instructional communication, focusing on its specific characteristics within the online educational environment. We will next focus on the intercultural barriers encountered in digital pedagogy and apply these concepts to forms of communication and situations arising in multicultural classrooms. In the second part of the workshop, we will analyze concrete situations of intercultural misunderstandings and seek solutions for preventing and resolving them.
The workshop is intended for instructors interested in the intercultural challenges they may face when teaching a multicultural class. It is part of the training programme offered via the KreativEU Centre for Excellence in Digital Education and AI. See this website for more information on KreativEU.
