"The most valuable lesson I learned at LCC is that people are the most valuable asset in every organization. Having talked to many alumni, they always said that people are what creates the real LCC experience, and now looking back, I couldn’t agree more. It is our amazing staff and faculty who share common values and help us grow not only as professionals but also individuals, and it is the students who later become your second family. It has taught me to care about each person I work or interact with. I believe that LCC is the place where you can create the experience you want.

The Center for Dialogue and Conflict Transformation at LCC International University recently had the honor of hosting peace facilitator Dr. Julijana Mladenovska-Tešija, who is Croatian, but also a native Macedonian with degrees in philosophy and religious studies; she speaks from both academic and personal experience of living and working in a conflict-affected communities. As the Vice Dean for Academic Affairs and a lecturer at Evangelical Theological Seminary in Osijek, Croatia, she offered open lectures for our students as an Erasmus visiting scholar on March 4th and 5th. She presented and participated in the Peace Conference: “Living with Fragile Identities.” Julijana graced our LCC campus by facilitating open lectures on the themes of “Grassroots peacebuilding in Croatia: Healing memories and lives” and “Religion’s role in (post) conflict restoration: the case of Croatia Post Yugoslavia.” Students and staff from multiple disciplines enjoyed her lively storytelling and critical analysis.In her first open lecture, she provided insights on the disintegration of former Yugoslavia and how new states with confusing identities were formed. It was helpful to hear how the historical backgrounds of each current state influenced the present and how new identities were formed within three different religious and political institutions. She shared the stories of a bloody and cruel Yugoslavian war and its events and remarked on how her “language is not sweet” which she hears how many describe it, yet language is a part of her identity from a land where there is no “clean” territory and a country with its variety of multiple ethnicities. Out of her life experienced stories she described how in current times there remains a big division between Balkan states leading to a continued struggle for reconciliation at the grassroots. She left us with ideas and questions to continue grappling with regarding how countries might heal from violence and war. It was interesting to hear her raise the question of “When is a Peacemaker a peacemaker, and when is a peacemaker considered a traitor?” She challenged us with her comment about the ‘other’ and that we “might not like them, but do not throw rocks at them”.In her second open lecture Julijana spoke about religion’s role in post-conflict restoration and how for her, the way in which Jesus impacted her life; giving us critical insights of how civil societies and religious institutions were identity-shapers in the Balkan states. Her interest in peacemaking comes with a desire to avoid the repetition of another Yugoslavian war in these countries. For, in her opinion, justice and peace are intertwined. Moreover, she offered a perspective on why humans are prone to violence and how history plays a role. For instance, she critiqued the idea of how states decided for their citizens what to remember and what not to remember from historical events, which leads to collusion and conflict between other states. As a result, out of her peacebuilding experience, she states that “our identities are the most fragile when it comes to history as our histories and languages are shared through other nations,” creating the most conflicts.Weaving her thoughts through stories of front-line peacebuilders she tackled ideas on why humans are prone to violence and what might perpetuate the story of violence. This is a thought-provoking idea to remember when we think about the narratives we resort to and the realities peace work entails. Especially, from Juliana’s perspective, as she sees it as a work in the process of building bridges and quietly nurturing small steps and spaces that help fragile societies build new narratives that heal. In the end, this Erasmus scholar left us with the challenge and reminder that we are all a part of civil society and its identity, and with that, we all have a part in what it can become.Author: Dominykas Norkus, intern at the Center for Dialogue and Conflict, LCC International University.

On my computer, I have a folder of unit plans, lesson plans, readings, activities, and assessments for the composition course that I teach at LCC International University. I have taught this course in both fall and spring semesters for many years. My well-organized documents give me confidence. Each of the 42 lessons of the semester are already planned for next fall. But, do my pre-made lesson plans make me a good teacher? What is good English language teaching? How can we conceptualize good teaching in a way that is both concrete and comprehensive? TESOL has articulated 6 principles of English Language teaching. These principles are broad enough to include K-12, adults, university classes, children, migrants, new comers, and English taught as foreign language (outside the USA). You can find information about all 6 principles here: https://www.the6principles.org/the-principles/ The fourth TESOL principle is: Adjust lesson delivery as needed. Good teachers walk into a classroom with a well-developed lesson plan. The teacher has designed a lesson with clear objectives, engaging activities, and elements of review. However, as I learn more about how students engage with my lessons, I must be willing to adapt my lessons. This year, I have been concentrating on upgrading my lessons for my composition classes. With some effort, I remember how my students reacted to ideas that I presented last semester. I ask myself; how can I adapt my lessons to truly fit the needs of my students this year? Over the spring semester, I have adapted my assignments to more fully activate students’ motivation. I have adjusted the metaphors that I use to describe abstract concepts. I have changed my examples to better address key ideas. I have swapped out introductions to lessons so students can see the logical paths to the lesson objectives. I have created different class activities with more focus. The course remains the same. The learning objectives have not moved. The final assessment remains in place. As a lifelong learner, I will keep adjusting and adapting my lessons in order to offer better lessons for the students who are sitting in front of me today. I am not seeking perfection. I am seeking improvement. The fourth TESOL Principle is a reminder to learn, to improve, and to adjust. This week, I asked my students to evaluate my teaching at mid semester. I am eager to hear from them, if my adjustments are hitting the mark.Note: TESOL International is a worldwide organization of English language teaching professionals and practitioners. They provide professional development workshops, seminars, and conferences at the state and national level. The national TESOL convention draws thousands of classrooms teachers, program directors, curriculum writers, university and graduate students, textbook authors, and researchers. TESOL offers scholarship, grants, and learning opportunities both face to face and online. TESOL representatives advocate for equality in education in the national, political agendas. Consider joining this dynamic organization today! Author: Robin Gingerich, Ph.D., MA TESOL Program Director at LCC International University.
