Written Response—Intercultural Competencies: Environmental Scan and Analysis
1.Written Response—Culture, Globalization and Intercultural Adaptation
Word length: Approximately 1,250 words (5 double-spaced pages)–8 sources required
This course examines the meanings and practices of culture in various global contexts. An awareness of your own cultural perspectives, as well as the perspectives of others, is a critical part of developing intercultural competencies. Recall that in modules 1-3, we look at the many intersecting aspects of culture, globalization, and intercultural competence development and adaptation. For this assignment, you will provide a written analysis of the cultural context in which you currently live or work. Drawing on the materials and readings from modules 1-3 and other appropriate readings you choose as references, you will identify and analyze the meanings and practices of culture within your current living/working context (e.g., cultural perspectives, intercultural communication, impacts of globalization, etc.).
Specifically, be sure to address the following questions in your written analysis:
Characteristics of Culture. Briefly identify and describe the cultural characteristics of your current work and/or life context. Explain the cultural perspectives and beliefs that you hold. What impact might your perspectives have on your understandings of and interactions with those from other cultural contexts?
Intercultural Communication in a Globalized World. What dimensions of culture have an impact on intercultural communication in your current work and/or life context (e.g. Canada or elsewhere in the world)? Providing one or two examples, explain both the local (i.e. where you are now) and global (i.e. beyond the country you are in) aspects of cultural diversity that you can recognize in your current day-to-day experiences (e.g., Can you see aspects of globalization and/or marketization in your local environment?).
Intercultural Adaptation. Where are you positioned in the spectrum of DMIS? Can you reflect and give one or two examples of how you adapted to new/different cultures in Canada or abroad?
For each question, make sure you provide an explanation and rationale that supports and demonstrates your analysis.
Also, remember to provide a cover page, an introduction paragraph that frames your responses, and a conclusion paragraph that synthesizes and summarizes your analysis.
2.Written Response—Intercultural Competencies: Environmental Scan and Analysis
Word length: Approximately 2,000-2,500 words (8-10 double-spaced pages)-24 sources required
For this final assignment, you will compile, discuss, and analyze information on an intended or a possible future global career placement of your choosing. You will conduct a brief environmental scan (i.e., gathering a minimum of 7 sources) on a particular international or global organization of your choosing, and your response to the questions below should reflect the cultural context within which this global organization operates.
As a part of your report, you will research and analyze the (inter) cultural aspects of a specific position or work experience that you are interested in.
you should not attempt to define all aspects of an international or a global organization. Rather, you should clearly define and communicate (e.g., within question 1) the limitations, parameters, and specific context of the position for which you are gathering information.
Also, remember to provide a cover page, an introduction paragraph that frames your responses, and a conclusion paragraph that sunthesizes and summarizes your analysis.
