Module 4 – Gave Me Direction

Can an individual truly engage with another culture and learn about it without a deep self-examination of their own cultural values? Explain.

What is the difference between cross cultural education and multicultural education?

Two of the questions for reflection from Module 4 have provided me with direction for my paper.

I am living, sharing, and contributing to a district in which there is no recognized territory.

Who are our FN students? How do we provide of their cultural needs when the cultural identities are so diverse? Cross cultural education? What might that look like and would it support well being and success? How can/should technology play a part?
