What is culture and how to value it ?, by Alice Brochi, at the University of Andorra
UNIVERSITY OF ANDORRA (UdA)
The workshop will be aimed at UdA teachers.
What is culture and how to value it? Reflections on higher education.
This 90-minute workshop began with a brief introduction to the concept of cultural value, emphasizing the concept of “Cultural commons,” that is, cultures located in time and space — physical or virtual — and shared and expressed by a community ”(Santagata et al., 2011, p.1). An interactive session was then held in which participants reflected on the following questions: What is culture and how do we value it? How do we measure its value? Finally, the workshop ended with a reflection on the teaching of culture in higher education, focusing on the challenges related to international student groups.
