Short Answer Consider the feedback you received on your Immersion project from the professor or your classmate partner. Also consider any insights you may have gained from listening to other people’s debrief conversations. Then, consider this question: Imagine you could complete a “Take Two” on your Immersion project. Name one additional SPECIFIC course concept that you now would apply to planning &/or  conducting your Immersion experience.  Explain your rationale on why this one additional factor would have enriched your approach.  Be sure your rationale is grounded in something you learned this semester and remember the goal of Immersion is to “inhabit” the world of different culture to try and see things through their eyes.  . Overall, this semester, the immersion projects were successful so any such “tweaks” may well be subtle & nuanced.

TERMINOLOGY:  . This section counts as one question        – Define any_four(4)_ of these seven sets of terms in reference to Intercultural Communication.         – Must be in your own words. Include concise examples to support your answers.        – Aim to be specific & concrete, & to demonstrate a comparison-contrast understanding of both terms (not merely side-by-side definitions.) The differences are often subtle.        – Each pair counts as 1 set of terms–worth 4 points    .        – Think Carefully! Terms marked with *  often were missed by several people throughout the semester. *  Enculturation  vs  Acculturation    {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  Sociocommunicative Style   vs  Intercultural Communication Competence  {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  *  Categorization  vs  Stereotyping {this one requires a comparison/contrast} {don’t overlook IPT}  Nonverbal Immediacy  vs  Large Power Distance     {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  Situational Knowledge  vs  * Action Chains (Hall) {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  Ethnocentrism   vs   Prejudice {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  Metacommunication  vs  Nonverbal Communication  {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  Facework  vs    Interpersonal Responsiveness                                  {this one requires a comparison/contrast}  —

Short Answer Extra Credit (worth up to 3 points)   Here’s one last look at the nonverbal artifact that our class created: “Our Virtual Quilt” . (The exam settings have been adjusted to activate this link but if it doesn’t work, you can try answering from memory, but be sure to include specifics.) As a student of Intercultural Communication, other than “high/low context” or “Individualistic/Collectivistic” what is one  other course concept that you might apply to analyze/interpret this artifact? Briefly support your choice.

Short Answer Among the listed Learning Objectives for this course were:  (paraphrased)  CLO 2: To be able to observe verbal and nonverbal communication in action and identify underlying culture-based factors that could have led to those behaviors you are seeing.  {If you select this one, you must cite use specific terminology, name names, &/or cite theories, etc. “Connect the dots”.} CLO 4:  To understand the concept and process of Enculturation and be able to cite ways in which a person’s enculturation has influenced what they currently display in terms of world view, belief system, &/or identity(ies)  {If you select this one, you can use yourself as the example, but you still must explicitly link probable cause(s) to probable effect(s). “Connect the dots”. }    CLO 5:  To recognize sources and implications of conflict in intercultural communication and ways to manage and/or resolve {If you select this one, you must use the relevant terminology specifying the respective C.M. styles and how they fit into the overall Conflict matrix. “Connect the dots”.}  ——————————————-  Now that you have taken this course, here’s a chance to demonstrate your ability to accomplish ONE of these three objectives as applied to our study of culture which emphasized the small “c” approach.  For additional guidance on what this question is looking for, keywords have been underlined in the CLOs & accompanying specifications.  Use any one specific current event in the news to focus your answer.  Remember, your goal is not to summarize the current event, but to focus on illustrating the CLO.  As of this writing, there are several usable topics in contemporary headlines, such as:   >public protests & demonstrations expressing positions;  >armed conflict between countries;  >high profile court cases on ethics issues & criminal breaches;  >gender-based disparities in organized sport;  >ageism (discrimination against older as well as younger citizens); >health vaccinations policies – in light of declining compliance &  increasing rates of  diseases such as whooping cough & measles;  >regulations on use of plastic products;  >academic integrity in a world of A.I.; >recent policy changes by the Starbucks CEO, including worker uniforms & instituting (some) free refills;  >reactions by Chicagoans to the election of Pope Leo XIV; >etc. etc. ( a current event choice of your own)
