This is a combination theory and application on intercultural communication. It is designed to help you understand how to communicate with people who are different from you. This course will emphasize how we can aid in social justice through intercultural communication. We live in a global environment where individuals from diverse cultures interact face to face and online. This course is designed to lead you through an examination of your own cultural identities and your interactions with others. In addition to a look at cultures around the globe, we will examine the interactions of values, beliefs, traditions, identities, contributions and food of non-dominant ethnic groups in the United States. Discussion and activities help students develop and apply analytic and communication skills which enable them to interact with cultural sensitivity and communicate more effectively in intercultural, interethnic, and cross-gender contexts. Particularly useful for students in business, behavioral sciences, education, and theology.
