Practical Application: The IGR Capstone
A hallmark of the 糖心影视 IGR Program is the capstone facilitation immersion. Our minors have the opportunity to guide their peers through a structured semester-long dialogue experience. Working closely with IGR faculty members, advanced students use the skills they have developed to lead our two-credit While dialogue participants engage with one another to gain knowledge and insight about identity, power, systems of oppression, and the pursuit of social justice, the co-facilitators sharpen their skills and expand their own knowledge base. The IGR capstone is a reciprocal experience that highlights the significance and applicability of employing dialogue as a tool for social justice.
As semester-long social justice dialogue co-facilitators, intergroup relations minors:
- strengthen their understanding of inter/intra-group relations;
- develop lesson plans, materials, and activities to inspire participant engagement;
- explore the theory and practice of group observation, navigating conflict, inter/intra-group communication, and community-building;
- engage with co-facilitators and cohort members to foster strong working relationships and systems of support (within and across identity groups);
- continue to study relevant theoretical, historical, and contemporary content; and
- gain increased self-awareness as they embrace their personal and professional growth and development.
