Since the beginning an adapted version of the NAFSA My Cultural Awareness Profile (MyCap) has been used to examine changes in the students’ cultural awareness. Online surveys are used since 2008 to evaluate the didactical concept of the IPC Project. Items consider for example the topics, learning activities, time and project management, coaching and support, the course structure or group collaboration. We also use spontaneous and anonymous student feedback as statements.
Several research projects have been conduct in different countries using IPC data or to support the further development of the IPC Project.
Quite a number of international publications related to the IPC Project have been published since the project start.
Information and evaluation results related to the IPC Project has been presented in many countries and on numerous international conferences allover the world since the project started in 2008.
