Lesson Plan

This activity was developed by Dr. Daniel Jones, CILMAR, Purdue University, using the following video:

 

Stevens, M. [D.O.N.G.]. (2018, June 18). Magic spelling [Video]. YouTube. https://youtu.be/QPLYWyq-VZc

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Explain that curiosity is a skill that has to be honed and developed like any other skill. 2. Understand that general curiosity translates easily into cultural curiosity. 3. Comprehend that it is important to dig beneath the surface, developing curiosity not just about the ‘what’ of culture but also the ‘how’ and ‘why.’ 4. Reflect on the process of forming deeper questions about cultural difference.
