Examining Values: A Comparative Cultures Course At Sit For Non-English Speakers, Ann L. Munch

MA TESOL Collection

This paper reports the Comparative Cultures section of a 10-week English course I taught at SIT the summer of 1973. Although the report is descriptive, its thrust is primarily instructive. Its purpose is to provide other teachers of Comparative Cultures some supplemental material. It includes my pedagogical approach to cultural awareness in the classroom, during the ten weeks, student involvement and reaction, and suggestions for adapting and improving the material.
