[Canceled] Intercultural Communication Skills Workshop Series - Session 6: Sharing Feedback
Date and Time
This workshop has been canceled due to low enrollment. We hope to offer it again later in the semester.
How do our cultures inform how we communicate, how we learn, and how we teach? New international PhD students navigate communication at Harvard on multiple levels: as students, as scholars, and as future teachers. In this interactive workshop series, we will explore how our cultural values influence our communication in a range of academic and classroom situations. You will have the opportunity to learn, practice, and get feedback on cross-cultural communication skills for Harvard classrooms and beyond, with sessions devoted to academic culture; small talk; participating in classes; listening skills; email etiquette; and giving and receiving feedback. This series is designed for new PhD students who did their undergraduate education outside of the US, but is open to any new PhD students interested in developing intercultural competence and practicing communication skills. Students are welcome to register and attend any or all sessions.
Session 6: Sharing Feedback
Feedback can be hard to receive but even harder to share with others. What are the cultural dimensions of feedback? This session will focus on strategies to help you feel more confident and comfortable when giving feedback to others.
