Abstract

Many educational techniques have the potential to relieve stress and improve quality. However, it's useful to remember that education is not available everywhere in the world, especially on a basis of equal access by rich and poor, men and women, regardless of culture. In this light, Stromquist and Monkman (2014) completed a study of globalization and education. The purpose was to recommend quality education even for marginalized areas, at low cost, regardless of shifts in geopolitical power, including state and non-state actors, corporations, and consulting firms. Given the prevalence of stress among students who study in an intercultural setting, it becomes important to discover specific techniques which might reduce stress and connect with students more effectively. Several examples from research are presented, followed by techniques adapted to various vocational subject areas.
