Multicultural, Movies, and Management: Navigating Overseas Currents
International movies, multicultural, dialogues
The unique contribution of this session is that we will demonstrate how we use international movies (such as Hindi, Chinese and Spanish etc.) to help students understand management concepts better. We have integrated international movie clips (such as Lunch Box, Slum Dog Millionaire, among others) to create dialogues on relevant management topics. Multicultural concepts are embedded in cultural contexts that require students to recognize and see these from local perspectives. We will show you how we navigate our students overseas virtually to teach multicultural concepts! We will include discussion questions and international movie clips as learning takeaways for the audience.
