From Roots to Today: Exploring Our Cultural Identities
What is this project about?
This is a special session designed for students who are participating in an international exchange class for the first time. Through this project experience, we aim to plan and develop future international exchange classes. The session will be held for one hour on April 3, 2026, from 13:30 to 14:30 (Korea Standard Time). Students create and share personal narratives or short videos explaining how one traditional cultural element from their country has influenced their contemporary identity. They participate in live or asynchronous discussions with international peers to discover common patterns in how cultures evolve and what values remain constant across generations.
