Cultural Insight Wednesdays with Maria Hussain, podcasts on SoundCloud.
Each week, Maria Hussain is in conversation with Leeds University Business School students from a whole host of different countries, backgrounds, and levels of study. These fabulous students share their insights and experiences of what it means to be a student at the University of Leeds. The podcasts are partly designed as a way to develop intercultural competence through co-creation, as this is student-led podcasting.
Some specific titles from the series:
- Enhancing Digital And Intercultural Literacy: The Key To Employability Success
- Placement & Job Searching For Undergraduate International Students
- Insights of being British and Asian
- How to be a Globally Minded Graduate
- Culture Shock for International Students
These podcasts obviously should be relevant to students, both international and those based in their home countries, but they also would make a good classroom resource for teaching about intercultural competence, culture shock, and other issues. See KC3: Intercultural Competence, KC87: Culture Shock, as well as other Key Concepts in Intercultural Dialogue published by this Center for further related resources.
