People Outside Our Community Discussion
Description
When we see and hear more, we are able to stretch, if only for fleeting moments, beyond familiar and taken-for-granted scripts. Breaking through our trained incapacities, we are able to recapture an often lost spontaneity. For Dewey, such imaginings were necessary for diverse individuals to come together through speech and action to repair and renew community life.” (D. R. Novak & L. M. Harter) Do we agree that we need to hear from those outsides of our community to fully understand how to help them and to put ourselves in their shoes?
Choose one question from the in-class discussion and elaborate on your thoughts and reactions, directly referencing the readings at least once. Then, discuss a comment that was made in class – do you agree or disagree with this comment, and why?
Select a culture distinct from your culture and that you can research using the CCBC Library resources. Identify and explain at least three of their cultural values (high context vs low context, individualism vs. collectivism, low uncertainty avoidance vs high uncertainty avoidance, low power distance vs. high power distance, talk vs. silence and cooperative vs. competitive cultures) that we studied in the Understanding Human Communication textbook – Chapter Four, Communication and Culture pages 80-86. Explain why you selected the culture. Also, indicate a culture that you belong to and compare that culture against the culture you are researching by explaining the similarities and differences of the two cultures.
Suggestions: religion, nationality, generation, ethnic groups. Topics that students have researched: Amish, Buddhism, Native Americans, Asian countries (Chinese, India, Japan), Pakistan, Nigerians, etc.
