Review TAD ‘08-’14 on a simply unique … experience
The ‘Dialogue’ was created as a collaborative effort between the University of Luxembourg and Miami University/Ohio.
’08 Putting Students at the Center May 21st-22ndAbbey Neumünster / Luxembourg The aim of the conference was to focus on the dialogue between EU and US in analyzing and illustrating similarities and differences of student services, in order to increase the attractiveness of the Higher Education institutions and to explore new cooperation issues.
‘11 Living Culture in the University May 25th-27thAbbey Neumünster / Luxembourg The idea was to create an experimental confestival around the notion of culture. The event is student as well as staff-oriented and meant to bring the participants in contact with ‘arts’ and make them think about ‘culture’.

Together, we will create possibilitiesin ways to become the best educators possible.
‘14 “Connecting … through Culture” A vision for global citizenship June 04th-06th Abbey Neumünster Luxembourg The focus of this conference is to examine the critical role of culture for developing students who think broadly, who recognize and respect cultural diversity and heritage, and whose engagement in the arts serves as a conduit to personal authenticity and innovation.
The goal of the conference is to dig deeply into key questions that help assess the value of embedding culture into higher education curricula. • The three overarching questions for this transatlantic dialogue are: • Why does culture matter? • How can culture prepare to become globally literate and responsible citizens? • How can culture be institutionalized in the academy?
Each of the questions will be answered by considering the implications for policy, practice, and pedagogy. Each of these areas must work cooperatively to assure that culture and development of culturally competent students are important aspects of the educational experience.
Learning Outcomes: • The desired outcomes of the conference are that as a result of the transatlantic dialogue participants • can articulate why culture matters in their own societal and institutional context • demonstrate a philosophy of practice that develops students’ capacity for cultural competence • advocate for the value of culture as a critical component of a university education - in the formal curriculum and in the co-curriculum
