Using Critical Reflection to Foster Global Citizenship

Presenters: Carrie Williams Howe, University of Vermont; Sherry Schwarz, Abroad View Foundation; Aynn Setright, World Learning/School for International Training

This workshop will explore the strategies and tools that can be used to engage students in critical reflection that encourages them to consider their roles as global citizens. The workshop will begin with an overview of the definitions and goals of critical reflection, offer an opportunity for participants to hear from panel members on specific strategies and tools they have found successful, and conclude with time for participants to consider when and how they might implement such tools in their own practice. Participants will be encouraged to think about collaborative strategies that might increase effectiveness of these tools.
