Description
Purpose: The goal of this assignment is for you to review cultures that have been studied over time and analyze them using course concepts and theories.
Task: Research how two specific cultures view chronemics and olfactics, citing a minimum of two scholarly sources. Write a 2-3 (double spaced) paper that adheres to APA style (i.e. 12-point font, normal margins, no cover page or abstract needed). If you quote, paraphrase, or summarize material from outside resources, including the textbook, make sure to give credit to the source and cite properly. Your paper should be formatted like a formal essay with an introduction with thesis, main/body points, a conclusion with thesis, and transitions between paragraphs. Address the following points:
Briefly describe (2-4 paragraphs) how each culture views chronemics and olfactics. Give specific examples and cite your sources.
How are the cultures similar in the way they view these concepts?
How are the cultures different in the way they view these concepts?
How might these similarities or differences affect the way people from these cultures interact? Make sure to include terminology and theory connections to describe the specific interaction and/or relationship.
What recommendations do you have for people of these cultures interacting regarding chronemics and olfactics?
A successful student will:
Submit a paper that is 2-3 pages long (double spaced, not counting any headers/footers/extraneous material) and is free from any grammatical or syntactical errors.
Submit a paper that is organized properly (i.e. introduction, main points, conclusion, thesis statement, transitions).
Analyze the case study using course concepts and/or theories.
Avoid summarizing the case.
Use APA style appropriately (i.e. cite sources in text and in a reference list).
