Beschreibung
The MILSA mentoring program provides guest students with the opportunity to develop their intercultural awareness and intercultural learning as students and future professionals. The program is offered twice yearly with a duration of one semester. It starts during the Introduction Week.
The mentoring program provides an immersive intercultural learning experience in an international location. Students' learning is supported by arrival and departure workshops, and by interviews and guided blog writing during their stay at the University of Liechtenstein. The mentor is a lecturer of the University of Liechtenstein.
The pre-departure workshop introduces students to explore aspects of intercultural learning and helps them prepare for their experience in a different society and culture.
During the semester, students will talk to the mentor during a personal interview and write guided blog contributions about their intercultural learning. They stay in contact and complete group task together. Shortly before their return home, students meet with the mentor in a departure workshop to discuss and reflect upon their experiences and the importance of their intercultural learning for their future professional lives.
The subject includes content on notions of culture, interculturality, intercultural learning,
stereotypes, identities, cultural practices, and reflection and reflective writing.
The First Steps in Intercultural Learning Workshop is held during the Introduction Week. This workshop provides essential content, discussion and activities to prepare students for their intercultural learning, international experience and to guide their completion of assessment tasks.
The Departure Workshop takes place at the end of the semester and allows the students to reflect on their experience, particularly their intercultural learning and its
application to their future professional lives. Students also present their group assignment.
