LANGUAGE tasks:
1) Perform an inventory of a predefined set of slang expressions in the different languages of the intercultural mix, by one to one inquiry with native speakers (ex: German "lass deine Kroten springen", French "le plumard, le pucier, le pieu", etc)
Assess and compare what can be deduced for cultural differences
2) Identify words in different language which are archaic (the oldest ones) or new (the newest ones). What does it say about the concepts seen by each culture?
GESTURES, Manual work:
How do people sew fabrics, starting with how is the thread inserted into the needle or the needle brought close to the thread. Capture video and analyse in details the sequencing and meaning.
If people have no clue about repairing garments, shoes, etc, put them in situation to try and do, and analyse their gestures.
Conduct and study interviews that look at the degree to which inequality in a society is both supported and secured for the consideration of the impact on egalitarian versus hierarchical leadership preferences in various cultures.

Hi Kirk - from the sound of it you are working in a higher education context but I believe that the structures of a really good global education performance task designed for young teenagers equally applies to undergraduates - simply applying analytical, research, and project design and evaluation skills at a higher level.
Six steps to the attached 'Get Global!' programme created by ActionAid, OXFAM and other UK charities nearly 15 years ago now (see below):
Get asking questions! Get an Issue! Get more information! Get planning! Get active! and Get thinking about it! [Review, Reflection]
I would also ask your students to embed exploration of at least two or three key global education concepts within their 'make a difference' projects - I'm sure these will be central within your programme (e.g. interdependence and globalisation; identity and cultural diversity; social justice and human rights, conflict resolution; Sustainable futures]
Best wishes.
Peter
