Experiential Learning in Blended Environments:Exploring Activities that Develop Cultural Intelligence(CQ)
Technological evolution that supports learning remain a central concern for instructional designers.Practitioners continue to rely on existing learning theories,such as experience-based learning,to explore the utilization of new technologies,applications and tools.Simultaneously,relevant research suggests that an integrated and comprehensive pedagogy for the development of intercultural competence remains underdeveloped.As part of a larger project that applies instructional design theory to the development of cultural intelligence(CQ),this theoretical paper explores the rationale for,and utilization of experiential learning in a blended environment at a Japanese university.Following a focused discussion of the relevant theoretical underpinnings,we present preliminary data to support the current conjecture.The purpose of this paper is to consider the rationale for using experiential learning in blended environments and the consequent instructional considerations for the application of suitable technologies that can enhance intercultural competence or CQ.
