FIU’s 2020 Global Learning Forum really helped me see the potential at my campus. I think your 3 bullets of Awareness, Perspectives and Engagement are actually better than the Value Rubric itself as theoretical frames. The 2021 Forum was really good on assessment. I referred to my notes all the time in getting my program approved. So your example has been inspiring!!

Internationalization at home has a significant role in building the Internationalization Framework at the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT). The global learning forum provided me with numerous ideas about how to facilitate students’ global experiences during a global pandemic.
