In Sherlock Holmes, participants are given objects and asked to be detectives by making conclusions about the individual to whom the items belong. In this activity, participants seek to understand the importance of the constant self-reflection needed to be interculturally competent, explore how each of us sees the world around us and how we make meanings, and appreciate that we have multiple cultural identities and that combinations of identities work together in different contexts" (Rao, 2012, p. 179).

In this activity, participants discuss how culture affects who gets commemorated and how that commemoration occurs, identify global sources of knowledge, and seek to understand multiple worldviews related to social justice issues in education.

In this activity, participants learn to recognize points of correspondence between monuments and the controversies that they generate, recognize disparities between monumental structures, and develop an appreciation for difference, without reducing materials to a hierarchical ranking of better and worse. 

In this activity, participants learn to articulate how cultural values, beliefs, and assumptions inform educational systems, develop self-awareness of their own cultural values, beliefs, and assumptions, and "appreciate rather than judge cultural differences and create more inclusive learning spaces" (Harvey, 2018).

"Birmingham, 1963. The image of a police dog viciously attacking a young black protester shocks the nation. The picture, taken in the midst of one of Martin Luther King Jr.’s most famous marches, might be the most iconic photograph of the civil rights movement. But few have ever bothered to ask the people in the famous photograph what they think happened that day. It’s more complicated than it looks" (Gladwell, 2017).

Portable Intercultural Modules (PIM) are small learning units focused on a single element of intercultural competence (one construct from the American Association of Colleges & Universities VALUE rubric for Intercultural Knowledge and Competence). PIM are turnkey solutions that address the needs of instructors who don't see themselves as experts in intercultural learning. They are meant to be embedded within disciplinary course content, and multiple PIM can be integrated systematically throughout a program of study to support students' development of intercultural competence over a longer period of time.

This self-guided online course presents a helpful orientation to instructors utilizing one or more of the three PIM that focus on interactions across cultural difference where the potential gap between intent and impact makes it difficult to navigate relational dynamics successfully. The course provides a general introduction to PIM, explores the theoretical constructs taught in the Tricky Communication PIM, exemplifies a range of implementation options from more basic to more engaged, and offers suggestions for facilitation. Questions about PIM can be directed to CILMAR at cilmar@purdue.edu.

This document outlines some helpful technical information for instructors who are embedding one or more Portable Intercultural Modules into their course or program.

"When someone asks you where you're from … do you sometimes not know how to answer? Writer Taiye Selasi speaks on behalf of 'multi-local' people, who feel at home in the town where they grew up, the city they live now and maybe another place or two. 'How can I come from a country?' she asks. 'How can a human being come from a concept?'"
