1. What is culture?
Read the following descriptions of national values
for China, India, Britain
•What do these descriptions tell us about the nature of
culture?
i.e. what kinds of things do we call ‘culture’?
• How long might it take an outsider to understand these
values?
So what is the nature of culture?
“a complex frame of reference that consists of patterns of traditions,
beliefs, values, norms, symbols, and meanings that are shared to varying
degrees by interacting members of a community”
(Ting-Toomey, 1999, p.10)
traditions rituals, ceremonies, rites of passage
beliefs, values, norms underlying principles governing behaviours
symbols language (verbal, non-verbal) also images
meanings Interpretations of symbols held by members
‘shared to varying degrees’ not every single member of the culture to the same degree!
‘a frame of reference’ for making sense of the world
Culture is socially constructed; a basis for shared, collective identities
What are the key
words to highlight
in this definition?
Another definition
“the coherent, learned, shared view of a group of people about life’s
concerns that ranks what is important, furnishes attitudes about what
things are appropriate, and dictates behaviour”
(Varner & Beamer, 2011, p.5)
coherent an entire, consistent world view
learned we are not born with it; culture is transmitted
view of a group agreed, shared views of a society
What are the key
words to highlight
in this definition?

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Overview on Edible Vaccine: Pros & Cons with Mechanism
T1 D Previous Defs And Master
1. Previous Student Team Definitions of Culture.
These are your teams’ definitions of ‘Culture’ AFTER you had created a definition and then enhanced
it by considering definitions offered by specialists and theorists. All I have done to them is to tidy up
the English expression a fraction where needed (not very often, I am glad to say!) and made things
occasionally a little ’tighter’ without changing your meaning. I dropped sentences posed as questions
and examples as they are not really needed in a definition.
• Culture is the pattern of basic assumptions that a given group has invented,
discovered or developed in learning to cope with its problems of external
adaptation and internal integration. Culture is the different way of life and
mentality, behaviours, feelings within a country or continent. These explicit and
tacit assumptions or understandings are learned and passed on to new members of
the group through social interaction. Culture is dynamic – it changes over time.
• Culture is a way of learning all the different languages, values, beliefs and habits
that constitute a society. It helps people fill in a kind of lack of knowledge. Each
country has its own traditions with a specific meaning for its inhabitants. Culture
is a mean of communication. It enables people to perpetuate their knowledge and
behaviour in their everyday-life. People acquire culture most significantly in early
childhood, since they are more capable of learning and assimilating when they are
young. Culture is different from one generation to another: it evolves.
• Culture is all the behaviours, knowledge, values and beliefs based on the daily
patterns of life and habits. It is created and perpetuated by the collective actions of
individuals to maintain the stability of a society. Culture is an essential but
intangible feature of social life, it's like the air around us, we can not see it, but we
can feel it.
• Culture is all the distinctive values and customs shared by a group of people.
These people have the same way of life, which is influenced by their common
past. Language allows them to perpetuate this culture, which is transmitted by
symbols, meaning, premises and rules.
• Culture is the pattern of basic assumptions that a given group has invented,
discovered or developed and operates across society. It represents the sum total of
the shared knowledge and experiences that vary from person to person. This
knowledge is developed in order to be understood by the present generation and
transmitted to future generations.
A brief, yet hopefully reasonably comprehensive working definition I came up with
BEFORE we looked at this together, was:
“A broadly-accepted, yet dynamic pattern of certain received wisdoms of life (or
aspects thereof) operating within a collective and influenced by individual
affiliates/members, which is facilitated, over time, by means of all forms of
communication and learning, such that individuals may find acceptance, meaning,
identity and security within the group and that the group may be distinguished from
others in the eyes of both group members and those beyond its ‘borders’”. T Jolley
(2008)
Key: ... = What ... = Where ... = How ... = Why ... = When ... = Who
Do I need to change this / add / improve to synthesis all your ideas on the matter?
2. Features of Previous Definitions of ‘CULTURE’
Student definitions offered many features which are closely related or held in common. I have
tried to arrange these under meaningful headings or ‘dimensions’ below which I hope will help
