LESSON 7 06/5/2018 : CROSS CULTURAL STUDENT

We have been told about all this type of cultural changes and paradigms but we are again mentioned that we will face with one or two students from different cultures or even our classroom is full of cultural diversity.
Learning the different situations we can face helps me to know how I can solve them.
I would just like to quote what brother Iver cites the Asian culture:
 "Asian students have positive comments about only two aspects of American life. Only two aspects! How we treat the physically handicapped, and our system of university education. "They admired how we treat the physically handicapped, and they admired our system of university education.
They said, "Regarding the physically handicapped, they were impressed how the disabled were given certain privileges, which gave them the courage to do things." And as far as another thing from this study, it said that "Asian students' most complimentary statements were addressed to the way classes provided students considerable opportunity for asking questions, engaging in critical thinking, and participating in a dialogue with the professor. Asian students overwhelmingly favored the classroom organization in the American university. "
We can imagine what our opinion would be if we were in their position, what kind of problems we would face that would provoke a different paradigm?
If we begin our life with our family as a parent as would my own son help him understand what is different? And correct?
As a teacher,
I would support my students to adapt and love others.
We must always take our role and help everyone to respect and love their neighbor by helping them adapt to the process of adaptation
It's interesting how when we go from one place to another they change so small and real aspects that's why it's very important.
It reminds me of a scripture that says that through small things the Lord confuses the wise ... so really when we do little things like motivating and teaching them and being friendly, it helps them adapt in their new life or accept others for what we do. It makes everyone different.

  1. I was pondering a similar question myself: What would be shocking for me if I were to move tomorrow to Japan, China, or Korea, and how would I handle it? If we put ourselves in their shoes, well, that's just the basis for empathy, and we'd be able to help them better if we understood how they felt.
