Three Easy Pieces - Cross Cultural Activities for the College Classroom
Saturday, October 30th, 2004, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Speaker: Tim Allan, Kwassui Women's College, Nagasaki
We will discuss and demonstrate three cross-cultural tasks intended for lower-level to intermediate-level high school and college students, although they could be adapted for various other ages, levels, and settings. The first includes an exercise connected to peace studies in Nagasaki. In the second, we will try a simulated gathering of anthropologists from different cultures. In the third, an exercise rooted in a semi-fictional Asian nation will pursue the possibilities of simulation and role play, through negotiations among companies, governments and NGOs.
