Global Perspective-Taking: Extending Interdisciplinary Pedagogies Into International Classrooms, Tami S. Carmichael 2018 University of North Dakota

Global Perspective-Taking: Extending Interdisciplinary Pedagogies Into International Classrooms, Tami S. Carmichael

English Faculty Publications

As William Newell observed, in order to obtain an excellent undergraduate education, it is necessary for students to move between disciplinary and interdisciplinary educational experiences; additionally, he claims it is essential that "students also…shuttle back and forth between the classroom and the outside world" (Newell, 2010, p. 12). This movement, both intellectual and physical, promotes the development of the perspective-taking that can help students better understand, and potentially begin to address, complex global issues (Newell, 2001). If moving between disciplines and beyond the classroom into the physical world (and back) could have an impact on students' perspective-taking development, what might …

Provost Remarks: Global Voices Symposium, Paul H. Benson

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Our studies of and engagements with global matters—people and practices, languages and histories, values and geographies—should not be regarded merely as a kind of overlay upon or supplement to whatever we might be inclined to think of as “our own,” as local, as domestic, as home. Our home is the world, the entire world—past, present, and future—in all of its dazzling multiplicity and variety. Whatever risks might attach to a naïve cosmopolitanism that undervalues the significance of our particular, localized practices, meanings, and relationships, it is essential for us to acknowledge, to explore, and embrace all of those global, …

Global Connections And The Marianists, Una M. Cadegan 2018 University of Dayton

Global Connections And The Marianists, Una M. Cadegan

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

For the past ten or fifteen years, I have been waging a one-person stealth campaign—I guess I am going to uncloak it today. That campaign is to change the university’s motto from Pro Deo et Patria (For God and Country) to Pro Deo et Mundo (For God and the World). “For God and Country,” adopted in 1920, reflected the sense among many American Catholics right after the First World War that they were, in a new way, fully American. “For God and the World” reflects our deepening sense today that our commitments and our awareness need to extend beyond national …


Thinking Critically About “Community”, Christopher Agnew 2018 University of Dayton

Thinking Critically About “Community”, Christopher Agnew

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Why hold this symposium now? In the past year, we have seen in this country a contest over definitions of community, over the basic rights of immigrants in this country, over the role of the U.S. in the wider world. Tensions are high, demagogues are out in force, and the results have been frightening to those targeted by the state, and frightening to those who see in these developments something too reminiscent of the worst parts of the twentieth century. It is appropriate in moments like this to appreciate the successes and recognize the problems, both realized and potential, that …

Storytelling And Cross-Cultural Communication, Jia Yang

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Misunderstanding happens when a person is trying to apply a story of his/her native culture to people from another culture, and do not realize that the story might be interpreted differently by the audience. The same story may not deliver the same results as you predict in your native culture.


My Experience At The University Of Dayton, Amal Alrasheed 2018 University of Dayton

My Experience At The University Of Dayton, Amal Alrasheed

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

“I am Amal. What is your name?” This “easy” phrase is what I used to say when I wanted to integrate within a new community back in Saudi Arabia. However, this phrase was the toughest phrase I could say out loud when I was a freshman at the University of Dayton. I faced a lot of challenges when I first came to UD. I was not prepared to handle the differences between my culture and the American culture. I wanted to be part of the UD community; however, people seemed uncomfortable whenever I opened a conversation. I had a tough …

My International Experience And Perceptions Of American Culture, Blaise Mosengo 2018 University of Dayton

My International Experience And Perceptions Of American Culture, Blaise Mosengo

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

I came to UD from Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, one of the 54 countries in Africa. The Democratic Republic of Congo includes more than 250 tribes. Two principal values can define the Congolese culture, as well as the cultures of many other countries in Africa: hospitality and attachment to the family. In Congolese cultures, strangers are welcome and given particular care. In fact, being together is of a great value in this cultural environment. There is little room for individualism. We exist first as members of a family or a clan.

The perceptions of many …


Themes Which Shaped My Professional Journey, Jusuf Salih 2018 University of Dayton

Themes Which Shaped My Professional Journey, Jusuf Salih

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

By the emergence of the new conditions of fast communication among diverse communities today, we are witnessing many changes in social, political, economic, and other aspects of modern societies. With mass communication and social media, the barriers among nations are falling, thus giving opportunities for openness and better understanding — but also to misleading and deceptive information. Therefore, these changes demand redefinition and reevaluation of the newly emerged conditions and accordingly adjustments to the new circumstances. Issues related to religion, ethnicity, and nationality are particularly complex and sensitive matters that can bridge but also divide people; therefore, they require thorough …

What Are The Benefits Of Education Abroad? What Do We Convey To Ud Students About This?, Karen McBride 2018 University of Dayton

What Are The Benefits Of Education Abroad? What Do We Convey To Ud Students About This?, Karen Mcbride

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Some of the benefits student get by studying abroad include:

  • Employability
  • Working within a diverse climate
  • Experience of the “other” (important given our racial demographics in EA)
  • Thinking/Acting creatively in a fluctuating environment
  • Foreign language skills
  • Intercultural development

UD’s SAIL Program (Semester Abroad and Intercultural Leadership) is a specific example of how we are being more intentional about intercultural development and positive intercultural engagement within the UD community.


Why Globalization Matters, J W. Terry 2018 Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

Why Globalization Matters, J W. Terry

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Globalization is a choice; inclusivity is also a choice. When you have privilege or power, you can choose what you like and what you don’t like. People tend to associate with what they value. That is fine; however, the problem exists in the question of “why do we value what we value?” I would argue that your values have been shaped by the media, false or incomplete historical narratives, and of course your upbringing. Therefore, your values have been skewed by factors like racism, white supremacy, simple stereotypes.


Introduction Of The Keynote Speaker: Imbolo Mbue, Amy E. Anderson 2018 University of Dayton

Introduction Of The Keynote Speaker: Imbolo Mbue, Amy E. Anderson

Proceedings: 2018 Global Voices on the University of Dayton Campus

Imbolo Mbue is the author of Behold The Dreamers, a 2017 Oprah’s Book Club pick and winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award.

Mbue’s book is informed by her experience of being an immigrant and the experiences of the many immigrants that she knows. The journeys of our students and Ms. Mbue connect in Limbe: each summer a group of UD students travels to Cameroon for a cultural-immersion/study-abroad program.

Mbue’s work is particularly relevant as we have a national conversation about immigration. Behold the Dreamers explores the complexity and interrelationship of these journeys and their connection to systems that privilege, oppress, or …
