This is a formative assessment, generally for personal use only. It is as appropriate for the leader of a cross-cultural program as for the learners. If completed anonymously and turned in to the leader, it can also be a useful device to gauge whether one's group of learners is being too challenged and is in need of additional support. It can also be useful for helping a group of students release frustration about "ineffective" and "non-timely" cultural phenomena, as well as prepare them to plan for intentional but productive stress release.
