This module, Our engagement with Asia looks at the importance of understanding values, commonalities and differences between people. From policy to curriculum, it seeks to develop students’ abilities to empathise with others, to analyse their experiences critically and to reflect on their learning as a means of better understanding themselves and people they perceive to be different from themselves.
