What makes the ICJ presenters unique?
• International students and scholars give first hand accounts of daily life, traditions, and customs in his or her own culture. • U.S. students may be able to identify areas of cultural complexity that may be challenging for Iowa school children to understand and assist in explaining from the perspective of an American who has adjusted to life in another culture. • Presenters may inspire K-12 students later in life to live or study in another country. • Presenters receive support and cross-cultural communication training. • Presenters are encouraged to use visuals and interactive approaches in teaching.
