Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Students will research and write content around increasing international/intercultural diversity in the community.

International and intercultural learning doesn’t have to solely occur overseas; there is much that communities can learn from within and from learning together. This project can look at ways to increase globalization in a community through activities, socials, interactions, websites, etc. The project will be general in nature, and articles for each area will be published on WanderingEducators.com to inform readers of the diverse, global possibilities where they live—and the potential to activate such options in their own community.

Students will receive an editorship on our site specific to their research area, authorship credit for all articles published, and mentoring/recommendation letters surrounding their topic and growth around global/intercultural aspects of the human lifespan.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Tasks will include:

  • Discussion of topical synergy between our website and your academic/research goals
  • Research specific international/intercultural diversity-assigned topic(s)
  • Write an article that is both academic in nature and general-reader friendly
  • Other tasks, including social media, photo sourcing, and keyword research for high-volume, evergreen traffic
How will you support learners in completing the project?

Opportunity to work with experienced global educator on the #1 travel education website. Mentorship includes topical discussions, writing/editing assistance, social media promotion of project, and powerful recommendation letters.

What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?
