This paper consists of two parts: a cultural profile of yourself and make an analysis of an intercultural experience (ICE) which you personally experienced. 1.)

For example, what motivated you to seek the intercultural experience? Were there any cultural differences between the people involved? Was language a problem? Was there any evidence of ethnocentrism or prejudice? Were there any nonverbal differences which may have caused the problem? Use concepts from readings for analyzing the experience .

1. This paper consists of two parts: a cultural profile of yourself
and make an analysis of an intercultural experience (ICE) which
you personally experienced.
1.) For your cultural profile, suggested topics are about your
families and relatives. Interview the eldest member in your
family. Where are your family members from? Do you have any
members from different religious, ethnic, national cultures? Do
you have family members who were born outside the U. S?
What are their language backgrounds? State something about
yourself: where you grew up, what places you have traveled to,
lived in, and worked in; what language(s) you speak/have
learned; what hobbies and interests that you have; what are your
college-level educational experiences; what intercultural
experiences you have had before.
2.) To analyze one of your intercultural experiences, you need
to pick an ICE that could be domestic (involving
communication between racial, ethnic, gender, or other distinct
identity groups in contemporary United States society) or
international (involving communication with persons from other
countries). Have you studied and/or traveled overseas? Have
you had a roommate whose cultural background differs from
yours? Do you work in a job where you encounter people from
different cultures? When describing this experience, give
enough details so that the reader can understand the experience.
After describing the experience, analyze the intercultural
experience in terms of (a) factors which facilitated
communication, (b) factors which inhibited communication, and
(c) concepts or principles which can explain what happened. For
example, what motivated you to seek the intercultural
experience? Were there any cultural differences between the
people involved? Was language a problem? Was there any
evidence of ethnocentrism or prejudice? Were there any
nonverbal differences which may have caused the problem?

2. Use concepts from readings for analyzing the experience
