Write 500–800 words in response to the following prompt. Write your essay using
your favorite word processor and then submit your document in the "Initial essay about culture"
dropbox located in the courses' d2l Table of Contents. Your document MUST be MS Word, Plain
Text, or PDF format, and you should save a backup copy of your work on your own computer.
There is no right or wrong answer, the only wrong answer is if you do not follow the directions
or answer the questions coherently.
We will deduct points if your essay falls below the word count, so use the word count function in
your word processor to check this. However, it is OK if you go *over* the word count,
but please email the TA if you are planning to write more than twice the suggested word count.
*. For this essay it is not necessary to use outside sources, but if you do use an outside source (by quoting
it or paraphrasing it), please cite it somehow 1. Define what you think “culture” is in one paragraph. (I am a Chinese! So culture should be
correct as Chinese one)
2. In the next paragraph, describe some aspects about your culture, including how the
circumstances of where you grew up, your family, school, identities, and wider society have
shaped your culture.
3. Next, write about an encounter with cultural difference (this could range from interacting with
a neighbor from a different ethnic group or religion than yours to traveling or living in a different
country).
A. Describe that encounter and what made it intercultural, and how you initially felt about the
encounter and why. Was there anything about the encounter that made you uncomfortable and
why (or why not)?
B. Describe any challenges you had communicating or understanding the other person, or if no
challenges, why not.
C. Did you become aware of any assumptions they held about others or vice versa?
D. Describe how you felt after the encounter and why.
E. Finally, based on your experience, describe one factor or characteristic that promotes a
successful or rewarding intercultural encounter (maybe it was something you did, or something
you realize you should have or should have not done). What did you learn from their
intercultural encounter that might help them navigate a similar encounter in the future?
