B99 INTL 350EGLocal Learning: Engaging with the World Locally1.5 Units
Description:This course will fulfill three broad objectives for students. First, the course is designed provide students with a multidisciplinary approach and introductory understanding of what it means to be a member of the St. Louis international community. The second is to provide a useful overview of intercultural learning, focusing on how individuals can cultivate a global mindset through different models, including the Intercultural Competency Continuum and Intercultural Praxis Model. The third objective involves recognizing and developing student's self and team strengths and weaknesses in relation intercultural competencies. This course combines small group sessions, case studies and speakers working in areas that support the global St. Louis community to provide students with an interdisciplinary perspective on the international community in St. Louis. Guest lecturers and on-site visits will be used extensively, supplemented with possible on-site visits to provide content and context integral to the course, with time to engage in critical reflection and discussion topics. At the end of the class students will be able to use their growth from the course to recognize how to be a better collaborative partner of their colleagues and communities, with an awareness of the unique strengths and challenges international communities may face. Students will have created strong relationships outside of the WashU community, be able to identify successes, resources, and gaps in resources for the international business communities, and therefore, serve as a strong mentor or advocate for exchange students, their peers, and future colleagues. In addition to having identified areas of personal curiosity for continued growth, students will have improved their understanding of and taken ownership for continued progress in cultivating a global mindset. Prerequisites: Sophomore standing and completion or concurrent enrollment in MGT 100, MGT 200A or MGT 380.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
