Chapter 12: Communicating With Others

Your instructor may ask you to complete one or more of the following exercises.

  • Conduct an interview with someone from a different cultural background than yours.  Ask questions about cultural values, norms, and experiences.
  • Write a reflection on your own cultural identity and how it influences your communication style.  Consider how your cultural background has shaped your worldview.
  • Think about a time when you have recently experienced conflict in an interpersonal relationship.  How do you think the situation could have been handled differently?
  • Compare and contrast cultural communication norms between two different cultures.  Create a visual aid that shows your findings.
