Read the Assigned Lesson Chapters, then watch this video:

  • Watch the provided video (1:15–3:00).
  • Read Chapter 3 (Section 3.1, Overcoming Culture Shock). https://youtu.be/2XCq2kODbK
  • Address the following questions:
    • Have you had similar experiences to any culture shock examples from the video? If so, describe what happened and how you navigated it.
    • Think about a norm, folkway, more, or tradition from your life. How has socialization influenced your acceptance or rejection of it?
    • If you were to study abroad like the students in the video, what aspect of your culture might surprise or confuse someone from another culture, and why? How would you help them overcome their reactions?
    • Think about a cultural event you enjoy. What are the cultural elements and symbols used? What type of culture is it? How would you explain it to someone from another culture?
  • Use specific examples from the video to support your responses.
  • Incorporate at least 5 key terms from the textbook, defining them in your own words and citing the textbook (e.g., chapter and section or page number).
