Have resources to share through the CGC? Please contact. Let's talk about how to internationalize thinking and communication with these (and other) opportunities. Internationalizing thinking and communication takes significant tactical and strategic thinking. How can we move from more ethnocentric thinking to more ethnorelative thinking? How can we increase our intercultural communication compentecy or cross-cultural literacy? What's out there that can help us professionally, or is just outright fun? Come chat.

There are many resources or ideas we can talk about through the CGC. For instance, how might you use RadioGarden as you think about global communication? Move from the local to the global and back again. Zoom in, zoom out.

- TTU International Research Network
- The Center for Global Communication (CGC) works with participants to sustain global citizen building across teams and organizations. The Integrated Global Teaching & Scholarship Institute is a professional development program designed for faculty to internationalize teaching, research, service, and grant writing strategic thinking. The training includes onsite and online interaction and support. It is an opportunity for faculty to consider TTU International Affairs resources, to share and develop cross-cultural literacies, and to use principles of intercultural communication to solve problems through academic work. The goal is to encourage and support faculty developing integrated scholar approaches, and is open to instructors, faculty, and administrators in transdisciplinary cohorts.
