International Education Week Lecture

Brian Brophy, Director of Theater Arts at Caltech (TACIT), introduces the idea behind a new Caltech course, Global Narratives, available in Winter 2015.  The "global narrative" emphasizes the need for international exchange and intercultural engagement.  Through HD video conferencing, the class will connect students in two parts of the world in real-time.  With a focus on storytelling, performance, writing and analysis within a global framework, participants are encouraged to investigate their assumptions and convictions in regard to the world around them.
