    If you are looking for a way to push learners beyond country-level stereotypes about culture, this is a good start. The structure this activity provides is much safer (with less risk of reinforcing negative perceptions or over-generalizing) than simply sending folks to the website to explore on their own. The activity is set up for in-class/real-time use, but it could easily be adapted to an asynchronous activity using discussion boards.
