Step 1 // For each cultural dimension, describe the main aspects of the dimension and define what it means for a culture to “be” it (example: what does it mean for a culture to “be” individualistic? How does this affect their communication, education system, etc.)
Step 2 // Describe where you believe your culture falls in each dimension set (ex: more towards individualism or more towards collectivism) and discuss what makes you believe so. Give many examples by researching your culture in these dimensions as well as discussing your family/cultural values with personal stories and examples.
Your responses should be in complete sentences, checking spelling and grammar. You should use the text for support in defining/identifying the dimensions. Your response should be about 2 – 3 pages double-spaced with 12-point font
