New Course at OSU!!!
What Happens When Students Stop Being Politically Correct and Start Being Real?
You can help find out by enrolling in a new course offered by OSU called, Intergroup Dialogue [IGD] through the Education Policy and Leadership Department. Intergroup Dialogue EDU P&L 270.04, courses are three-credit courses designed to bring together students from different social identity groups in a sustained and facilitated learning environment. IGD engages students to explore issues of diversity and inequality and their personal and social responsibility for building a more just society.
Intergroup Dialogues are 3-credit courses carefully structured to explore social group identity, conflict, community, and social justice. Each intergroup dialogue involves identity groups defined by race, ethnicity, religion, socioeconomic class, gender, sexual orientation, or national origin. Each identity group is represented in the dialogue by a balanced number of student participants, usually 5-8 participants from each group. Trained facilitators-one from each represented identity group-encourage dialogue rather than debate. Students examine and discuss reading materials that address issues and experiences relevant to the groups in the dialogue, in relation to both the University setting and general society. Facilitators and participants explore similarities and differences among and across groups, and strive toward building a multicultural and democratic community.
To Enroll:
• Email Nicole Nieto, nieto.12@osu.edu, for an enrollment request form
• You will be notified by MCC staff about the status of your enrollment request
• Once your request is granted, you will be able to register for the course
IGD Learning Outcomes:
* To develop intergroup understanding by helping students explore their own and others' social identities and statuses, and the role of social structures in relationships of privilege and inequality
* To foster positive intergroup relationships by developing students' empathy and motivation to bridge differences of identities and statuses
* To foster intergroup collaboration for personal and social responsibility toward greater social justice.
