Cornell University
Cornell faculty and staff are invited to join this online conversation with the Cornell International Education Network (CIEN) about Global Learning Assessment and Program Evaluation organized by Amy Kuo Somchanhmavong from the Einhorn Center. Come learn insights from current assessments at Cornell, and then split into groups to discuss the relevance to student learning, global community-engaged learning at Cornell, and your own work.
 

The meeting invites conversation about two survey assessment tools being utilized on the Cornell campus related to international education and community engagement.

  • A multi-institutional global learning assessment tool, the Global Engagement Survey, that the Einhorn Center is using with their programs and their campus partners

  • A survey to learn more about Cornell international student involvement with community engagement and how to increase it

Speakers:

 

Bio for visiting speaker Caitlin Ferrarini: I am currently the Director of Assessment for the Global Engagement Survey with the Community-Based Global Learning Collaborative. I am also a PhD Candidate in the School for Global Inclusion and Social Development at the University of Massachusetts Boston. Before starting my doctoral studies, I worked in South America for five years as the Executive Director of WorldTeach Colombia and an Education Advisor with Fulbright Colombia. My professional and research interests include experiential education that promotes global learning, social action, and ethical community engagement. I am also passionate about the inclusion of non-dominant student groups in global learning programs. An example of my own analysis of Global Engagement Survey data is in the co-authored article: Coloniality-Decoloniality and Critical Global Citizenship: Identity, Belonging, and Education Abroad. I also enjoy vinyasa yoga, cooking, eating, and hiking with my husband, baby, and our cocker spaniel. 

Resources: You can find more information about the Global Engagement Survey on the Community-based Global Learning Collaborative’s website including presentations/publications regarding validation of survey scales, conceptual framing, and different ways Collab members have utilized the assessment tool. The survey items document lists all survey questions and gives an explanation of key concepts. And this overview presentation is a useful introduction to the GES.
