Lesson Plan

Source

Activity created by Dr. Kris Acheson-Clair, CILMAR, Purdue University, based on the following: 

 

Hall, Edward.T. (1966). The hidden dimension. Anchor Books.

The original version of this activity works best with culturally heterogeneous groups (not necessarily international - there are also urban/rural, regional, and class differences in houses). However, a second version of this activity is designed to address homogeneity among participants by providing some examples. The examples are international in nature, but facilitators can also take the debriefing discussion to domestic variation in housing if that is of interest.
