– Spend at least eight hours in communication with them.
– Get to know each other, share your own worldview, learn about your consultant’s worldview and compare and contrast at least three key concepts from class readings and/or slidesets.
– You will have a chance to present your findings in a virtual poster, complete with visuals (maps, key points, images, etc.).
– Use the information from your poster as the foundation for a paper of approximately 2000 words, in which you will:
1) give a brief overview of your experience, your consultant and the culture you explored,
2) describe what you learned about your consultant’s culture and your own culture, based on your interactions and your outside research, and
3) draw on class readings and your outside research to critically reflect on at least three cultural differences.
