Four faculty members from Valley City State University will make presentations as part of an international cloud video conferencing with the University of the East (UE), Manila, Philippines, to be held Wednesday, Feb. 26, at 7 p.m. in Rhoades Science Center on the VCSU campus.
VCSU faculty Shou-Ching Chao, Daisy Figueroa, Jodi Shorma and Rob Walsh are panelists for the free video conferencing online titled “Preparing English Language Activities for Cultural and Linguistic Diversity in the Classroom.”
The web video conferencing will electronically connect VCSU presenters with their counterparts in the Philippines—UE professors Mark Fabella, Paolo Danduan, Menandro Mortel and Arnold Santos. The international collaboration features presentations by each VCSU professor, followed by a brief response to each by the UE professors.
In addition, the event will include the culmination of an intercultural assignment in which students of VCSU’s Jodi Shorma were paired with students of UE’s Arnold Santos.
Once the largest university in Asia with more than 60,000 students, UE is a leader in technology, dubbed “most wired university” by Computer World Magazine and Enterprise Magazine in 2006.
The event is open to the public free of charge.
