COURSE INFORMATION

Making Change - Developing Meaningful Intercultural Programming

IET 420 (1.5 units)

Where to start?  What approaches to use?  How best to enlist allies and supporters? Are we on the right track?  How do we know? These are all important considerations in moving from ideals to change - all considerations that community organizations and government programmers assess on a regular basis.  Looking at the intersection of inclusion issues and programming considerations in a contemporary setting, this course explores the practical issues and challenges of moving from wanting to affect change to making it happen through examining different methods for reaching the goals of inclusion and participation.  Making the connections between contemporary theory and practice through case studies and role play, students will gain practical knowledge and skills to
work effectively in a variety of organizations.
