Class Information

Outline/Description
(ENG)

For multidisciplinary problem solving it is necessary to collaborate with people outside of your comfort zone. That is, you need to find the right language to communicate with those who don’t share your expertise, culture, or English ability. This workshop challenges students to craft a solution to a One Health problem under time pressure with a small team of diverse people, and then deliver a presentation in front of an audience.

Requirement,textbook,materials

(ENG)

Some weeks before the workshop, you will choose from one of three One Health scenarios, and subsequently receive a small handout which includes basic background information.

Schedule and Activities

(ENG)

1) Before workshop. Select your 1st and 2nd choice of scenario. Past categories have included environmental science, comparative oncology, infectious disease, and research ethics.
2) Group discussion. You have around 2 1/2 hours to answer your question and design your poster.
3) Presentation. Each group has 5 minutes to present their novel ideas to an audience of peers and faculty who vote on their favorite.
