//podcastplus.net/feed/ics-staff-podcast~58a6626e This podcast will hopefully be an interesting and useful resource where guest speakers can share useful tips and guidance on a range of topics to support us as educators. I also hope that this is a way of feeling more connected with a wider range of people who can foster meaningful conversations beyond this podcast, especially in these current times where we are more distanced from one another.

Even though this is such an important concept for modern education, it is a very complex one and within this conversation we dive in to the importance of intercultural learning in an international school setting; the definitions/sub-categories that link to this concept; and what we can do as teachers to practically enhance intercultural learning with our students.
