We were thrilled that out of all of the innovative international programs at USF that USF World selected our project to showcase in its NAFSA Video Contest Entry!
NAFSA is the national association of international educators. The top 3 videos will be shown at the upcoming conference in Houston, Texas in May.
Dr. Svetlana Suveica joined me (via skype on my iPad) and a few of my students from Women and the Law to discuss our project from last semester.
(For those of you new to the blog, in the Fall 2011 semester my Women and the Law class at USF St Petersburg partnered with Dr. Svetlana Suveica's class at Moldova State University in Chisinau. Our students worked together in groups on research projects related to human trafficking. More about the project is posted on this blog.)
It was incredibly gratifying to hear my students reflect on what they learned from the human trafficking research project specifically and on how the experience working with colleagues in Moldova had a broader impact on their perspectives and on their long-term career career goals.
After the NAFSA conference, we can post the YouTube link of the video on this blog, so stay tuned!
