Dr. Dan Moen and Dr. Emily Stark present on their Summer 2021 Teaching Scholar Fellowship project, “Our Origin Stories: A Step Towards Empathy and Cultural Understanding.” Drs. Moen and Stark will describe the implementation of an ‘origin story’ project in their Summer 2021 courses that involved student reflection on their own family and cultural backgrounds and interview of another student in their class, with assessment data suggesting that students had a positive experience with the assignment and reported increases in their own cultural competence.
