PERSPECTIVES ON DIVERSITY AND CULTURE

CULTURE



What is culture and diversity for Andrea, Jose, and Emilia?
They answer that culture is a range of knowledge, experience, and behavior. Is the basis and the foundation of who we are, what we identified each other.


And diversity is a variety and difference that the things have, the different cultures of people, this allows us to see the knowledge and customs of the people. The diversity is important because it teach us to tolerate and to respect and understand others.

Beliefs                    Language
Customs
 

CULTURE
Understanding                                                                   Religion
                                                               Values





For me culture is complex, what we live, the language we speak, religion, the food, the way we talk, our behavior, beliefs, our cultural background, our ethnicity, our relationships with others, Values, how we show our emotions, education, how we socializing.

I think my knowledge about culture increase in me to see more elements that are include in culture is not only the costumes, faces, food and holidays is more than that is the lifestyles, behavior, education, relationships, language that we reflect in our life, the way we life the way we learn.

People has difference, they are different, so we learn from each others, and we need to understand and respect people with their differences, be more open, and try to fit at home and outside in our work, school, social life.

  1. Hi Maria. These are great definitions from your family (?). I like how they defined culture as “a range of knowledge, experience, and behavior. It is the basis and the foundation of who we are, what we identified each other.” I noticed you emphasized people are different; we learn from each other and we need to understand and respect them for their differences. It is also important to develop ‘communication’ among everyone, regardless of their culture, their beliefs and so forth. Thank you for sharing your post 

  3. Maria-

    I absolutely agree with you that we need to understand cultures other than our own. I try to incorporate this into my classroom by reading books, playing games, etc. What are some things that you do?
