Exploring Etiquette Across Cultures

This collection provides activities to introduce and explore differences in performing etiquette across cultures in addition to articles that address issues of etiquette. 

*While engaging with this collection, it is important to remember that like culture, etiquette practices evolve and change over time. In one resource, you might see a caution against talking about money in a particular area of the world, for example, and in another resource, you might see that talking about money in that same area of the world is appropriate. All this to say, perceptions, practices, values, behaviors, and more vary across cultures and individuals. We encouraging refraining from essentialism which can lead to stereotyping and using these resources to bring self and other awareness as even though etiquette rules may evolve over time, the concept of etiquette exists across cultures.

Pre/Post Survey Instruments that align (reasonably well) to the AAC&U Intercultural Rubric

In this collection, we have gathered notes on and links to eight validated surveys, curated here in the HubICL, that align to one or more of the aspects of intercultural competence as defined in the AAC&U Intercultural Knowledge and Competence rubric.  Of these eight instruments, five are free or offer a valid and reliable free version; while two offer an immediate free feedback report to the learner.  These are our current "go-to" surveys when attempting to support a study abroad instructor through the use of the worksheet for intentional intercultural planning.
