Tim Talk -- International Education: Global Life in Local Spaces
Join us on Wednesday, November 18 for “Tim Talk,” a presentation by Dr. Tim Goddard on the subject of “International Education: Global Life in Local Spaces.” The event will be held at 12:30 pm in the AVC Learning Commons, and will also feature refreshments and door prizes!
In this talk, Dr. Tim Goddard will address questions of internationalization on campus. What does an international education look like? How might domestic students globalize their degree? How can international students influence institutional life? What challenges face students, administrators, faculty, and staff who want to develop international awareness among all members of the campus community? Drawing upon the experience of the Faculty of Education as a case study, he will explore what an internationalized education might look like as well as the difficulties inherent in achieving such a vision.
