摘要

由于美国学院和大学对本科生的国际要求，本研究评估了在线国际纪录片课程的价值。通过学生的反思性论文来评估观看纪录片的效果，注意到观看电影后对国际问题的看法可能发生的变化。研究结果表明，学生们获得了新的知识，表现出了同情心，为自己的特权感到“幸福”，并受到启发去帮助他人。调查结果还反映了对美国和其他国家之间不公平的权力关系的无知，产生了“他者”效应。提供了一些建议，让学生参与更批判性的研究和反思本地与全球的联系。

Beyond “Feeling Blessed”: Using International Documentary Film to Foster Global Awareness in an Online College Course

As US colleges and universities incorporate an international requirement for undergraduate students, this study assesses the value of an online international documentary course. The effect of documentary viewing was evaluated using students’ reflective essays, noting possible shifts in perspectives on international issues after film viewing. Findings show that students gained new knowledge, displayed empathy, felt “blessed” for their privileges, and were inspired to help others. Findings also reflected an ignorance about inequitable power relationships between the United States and other countries, producing an “othering” effect. Recommendations are provided for engaging students in more critical research and reflection about local-global connections.
