class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The course began by highlighting the importance of reflecting on the meaning of words. Together, participants explored what <em>intercultural learning<\/em> meant to them and examined the differences between <strong>multicultural, cross-cultural and intercultural<\/strong> approaches. This helped them develop a more nuanced understanding of how to describe and interpret interactions between different cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the course, we explored the relationship between culture and education. Through a series of practical activities, participants reflected on <strong>how cultural backgrounds influence teaching approaches and learning styles<\/strong>. These exercises encouraged them to consider the awareness and sensitivity teachers need when different cultural expectations and practices emerge in the classroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We then explored the concept of <strong>identidade<\/strong> as a starting point for understanding diversity. Through a visual activity, participants reflected on their own identities and examined how culture shapes the way we see ourselves and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, participants took part in a storytelling activity focused on stereotypes. Together, we explored the <strong>vicious cycle of stereotypes<\/strong>, examining how stereotypes can lead to prejudice and discrimination, which in turn reinforce existing stereotypes. Inspired by a TED Talk we watched during the course, we reflected on the following powerful message: <strong><em>\u201cShow a people as one thing \u2014 as only one thing \u2014 over and over again, and that is what they become.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The final topic was <strong>inclus\u00e3o<\/strong>. Through simulation activities, participants explored the challenges of <strong>comunica\u00e7\u00e3o intercultural<\/strong> and reflected on how assumptions can influence interactions between people from different backgrounds. These activities encouraged them to question preconceived ideas and identify common ground across cultures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants then took part in group challenges focused on <strong>belonging and empathy<\/strong>. These activities can be adapted to different subjects and classroom settings, helping students recognise that every class member has something valuable to contribute. They also encourage students to understand and empathise with their classmates&#8217; different needs, experiences and backgrounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-1024x746.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14031 lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"746\" src=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-1024x746.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14031\" srcset=\"https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-1024x746.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-300x219.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-768x560.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-1536x1119.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-2048x1492.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-16x12.jpeg 16w, https:\/\/erasmustrainingcourses.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261016_130230_052343-scaled.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From discovering hidden places to exchanging personal experiences, participants documented their discoveries on a <strong>Padlet<\/strong>, creating a <strong>collection of local experiences seen through multiple cultural lenses<\/strong>.
