In this interactive workshop, participants will be introduced to Arab culture. We will dispel myths and misconceptions about Arabs, identify and define major concepts (such as Arab vs Muslim), and touch on the impact of what is happening in the Arab world today on the Arab community in the United States. An important goal of this workshop is to raise our awareness of our own biases and misconceptions so we can be better prepared to address them in our work at the college.
Online work starts April 29. Synchronous session: Friday, May 6, 12:30-3:30 p.m.
6 PD Hours | $100 stipend for faculty who complete the final project
12 seats: Register for Arab Culture 101 by April 21 to complete the pre-workshop readings.
Questions about this session should be directed to Ahmad Ghashmari, A&H, or Reham Elkhayat, A&H.
