Submission Information: Due Friday, December 15, before 11:59pm! Submit through bCourses website only! Late assignments are not accepted. Assignment: Write a 10-12-page formal paper that does the following: 1) Explains and provides details and examples of the rules and norms of the cultural space (rules, norms, habits, ideologies, communication patterns, etc.) that you invested in. This part of the paper is basically like deep description with a few examples to illustrate some of the key rules/norms/cultural practices that you discovered You may not be able to explain EVERY cultural practice or rule, but try to choose about 3 key, important, interesting, peculiar ones. The idea is to choose ones that are significant and interesting. Do not focus on describing the setting or recapping your experience--instead, focus on describing the culture Use course themes to help you situated some of the key differences, or course language to describe some of these cultural differences (e.g. Hofstede's cultural dimensions). 2) After doing #1, provide an analytical reflection on the subculture. Discuss three key cultural and/or communication differences (or surprising similarities) you observed and consider what you have learned from these experiences. This is a more "open-ended" part of your paper where you can choose what you find most interesting about your experience and comment on it. Do not just point out differences or re-summarize the first part of the paper--instead, refer quickly to the cultural traits you observed in part #1 of the paper and then move on to explain what you learned from observing this cultural value/trait. Depending on your experience, you can approach this analytically a few different ways: Note the difference between the subculture and your own personal culture. Then, move to explain this difference. Why might the subculture have this cultural value or trait? Where do you think it comes from? Why do you not have the same cultural value or trait? What do you learn about yourself from observing this different? Note a surprising similarity that you did not expect between the subculture and your own personal culture. Then, move on to explain this similarity. Why did you expect it to be different? Why did your personal cultural values/traits end up lining up with the subcultures? Where does the subculture get this value/trait and where did you get your value/trait? Note an interesting communication pattern you observed in the subculture (briefly refer to it if you discussed it in detail in part #1). Why did you notice this communication pattern? Is it similar or different from your default communication tendencies? Why do you think this communication pattern exists in the subculture? What do you learn about yourself and your own communication tendencies through experiencing and observing the subculture? Is there anything that could be done for you to interact cross-culturally with the subculture (or did you do anything differently to engage with others as a result of this communication difference)? The above bullet points are NOT comprehensive of all the analytical approaches you could take--it depends on what you found valuable about this experience. For example, you could talk generally about something you learned or surprised you and then move to analyze it. Instead the bullet points are a base of examples of how to approach this part of the paper. Any citations of class readings can follow ASA format and use simple parenthetical citations, for example, (Smith 2009). No need for a works cited page.
