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.
