This is especially true in thelectures covering global perspectives in higher education. Since its inception, the course hasattracted students from a variety of backgrounds around the world. International students in thecourse are invited to present on the educational formats, standards, and requirements of the earlyeducation and higher education systems in their home country. These presentations evoke a richdialogue around differences and commonalities between education systems around the world.Throughout the semester, students are required to keep a weekly journal of their thoughts andexperiences throughout the course, blog

At the root of the model is that behaviorscongruent with one’s identities are preferred and motivating, whereas behaviors incongruent arenot preferred and viewed as unimportant and meaningless. Moreover, what children and youngadults perceive as congruent for them is heavily influenced by what they see and experience. Assuch, role models (teachers, mentors, peers) who reinforce and share in a given identity make itfeel congruent. It can then be more readily adopted as a part of their identity – who they are.This is why having caring, dedicated and multiple mentors, for example, is at the heart of boththe CISTAR and NSBE SEEK parts of the REM program and is so critical for changing thedemographics of fields such as
