#theOpenUniversity #politicsAn introduction to intercultural competence in the workplace (Free Course Trailer)OpenLearn from The Open University2023-09-15 | The short course that this taster course is based on offers a foundation for this lifelong learning effort.
The taster course examines three aspects that are highly relevant to intercultural competence: culture, communication, and identity. These three terms are used frequently by us in our everyday lives, but their meanings can seem ambiguous and broad. Have you for instance considered that equating culture with country can actually lead to more confusion and stereotypes than seeing the two as separate entities? The activities that you can try out here aim to give you a little more clarity on what such key concepts stand for and how they are used with regards to intercultural communication.
The activities also aim to increase your cultural self-awareness, which is an important basis for building cultural knowledge, because if you start to understand how your own cultural values and beliefs are reflected in your behaviour, you can relate to and interpret the behaviour of others who might have different experiences and beliefs from you.

Community, choices, aspirations is a free resource for young people to help them think critically about the choices they make and about how to act positively for change, around the issues they care about. This short course was made in the aftermath of violent street disturbances in working-class areas of Northern Ireland in the spring of 2021.

Course content includes understanding what community means to you; exploring different perspectives; questioning and evaluating information and influences, including on social media; decision-making; finding your voice and becoming positive changemakers.
About this course and how it was made: This short course was made with eight teenage boys taking part in an ACT Initiative and Belfast Boys’ Model School project: Adam, Ashton, Brandon, Dylan, Matty, Ryan, Stephen and William. It is based on a face-to-face course and workshops developed by William Mitchell, a Loyalist ex-prisoner and former Open University student from the Action for Community Transformation Initiative (ACT), based in the Shankill.
Why riot? is a collaboration between The Open University in Ireland’s Time to Think initiative and the ACT Initiative.

But are there limits to what we can discover about our physical universe?
