Shocking Culture

This week in class we learned about the different cultures and how they are completely different but also similar to Americans. We played this card game, and Sal taught each table a different game and who every won the most games would rotate to a different table. But when the winners got to the new table, they came to realize that they were playing a different game. In my group, our game was you needed to match up the different shapes with each other and an Ace would beat all of the other cards. But when we had a new member come tonite group and she thought that you could match up the numbers and it didn't matter what shape it was. I thought that was a great activity to show how individuals deal with culture shock.

  1. I like that you identified culture shock with an in class example. I think that often times, we don't take other people into consideration when we decide how to act, and it's essential that we consider other cultures in our actions.
