List at least three ways you may be able to increase your cultural awareness and understanding of diversity on your campus.

Is it a cultural observation or a stereotype to say, for example, that Mexicans are more relaxed about time commitments than Americans? (Think a minute before answering. How would you justify and explain your answer if challenged? Could both answers be right in some way?)

For each of the following statements about diversity, circle T for true or F for false:

List several characteristics of your own cultural background that may be different from the cultural background of some others on your campus.

     I used to live in Arizona for 9 years, but I was born in Pittsburgh. I lived mainly in a Spanish culture, never had to wear heavy clothing, and I visited California. In which I saw a lot more of a cultural difference, mainly Asian, and Spanish cultures. which may be different from another student at CCAC, who was raised entirely in Pittsburgh.

Write a description of someone who is of a different race from yourself but who may not be different ethnically.

              One who is a different race from me, so in this case I will choose Chinese. But they were born in America. So, that is an example of one who is of different race, but similar ethnically.

List as many types of diversity as you can think of.

          Diversity in trigonometry, Diversity in angles, Diversity in rates of change, Diversity in topology, Diversity in Geometry, and Diversity in algebra.

              Each one is a branch of the same tree, but each is a different form of it. Which metaphorically describes the entire article perfectly, humans can be different, but they are part of the main tree of humanity.

If you are in the dominant cultural group on your campus, write a paragraph describing values you share with your cultural group. Then list things that students with a different background may have difficulty understanding about your group. If your racial, ethnic, or cultural background is different from the dominant cultural group on your campus, write a paragraph describing how students in the dominant culture seem to differ from your own culture. Look back at what you just wrote. Did you focus on characteristics that seem either positive or negative? Might there be any stereotypes creeping into your thinking? Write a second paragraph focusing on yourself as a unique individual, not a part of a group. How would others benefit from getting to know you better?

                According to a source I've found online, 42% of students at CCAC are white. Hence, I am part of the "dominant cultural group" I am not a very social person, I don't discuss values, I discuss ideas. I share these ideas to whomever might be interested in them, not if they're part of my "dominant cultural group". Things students could have differently than me is being raised in a different household, taught in different schools, and potentially lived in different areas than me.

Looking back at what I wrote, I believe everything I've wrote is subjective, I don't think anything I've said represents either positive or negative, just different background, is different appearance. For the stereotypes, I didn't put that in perspective since you can't exactly stereotype something that is subjective.

     Focusing on myself, Caiden Ward, other people could benefit from getting to know me as a way to explore my ideas, and interests. If we share the same interests, we can both discuss them, hence learning from each other, which is then benefiting from each other.

    In my case, whenever I decide to not do what I was planning to do, I usually ignore it entirely. To answer the "How does that make you feel now", I would have to say it doesn't really matter to me, I stopped my plan because two people approached him, whom I assume I don't know, hence I wasn't going to approach him either way after realizing that.

To do well in college, you basically have to give up everything else in life for a while.

If you sit back, wait patiently, and stick it out long enough, success in college will inevitably come to you.

Attitude is one of the most important factors affecting college success.

Life in college usually differs in many ways from one’s previous life in high school or in the workforce. What are the biggest changes you are experiencing now or anticipate experiencing this term?

What do you value that will you likely have less time or money to spend on while in college?

What do you value that will be richer in your future life because you will have a college education?

Which of the following are benefits of a college education?

Explain the functions and importance of dyneins and kinesins as if you were trying to explain this to your 10 year old cousin. How are they similar and how are they different?

which one would you want to conduct research on? Why? What specific aspect of the organelle would you want to learn more about?

While today’s atmosphere is about one-fifth molecular oxygen (O2), geological evidence shows that it originally lacked O2. Without oxygen, aerobic respiration would not be expected, and living things would have relied on fermentation instead.

I have a personal computer and/or smartphone with a data plan and internet access.

I had access to books in my native language in high school.

The good news is that academics, librarians, and even the government are pushing for more open access to academic material.

Students, even those in high school, enjoy information privileges that aren't afforded to the general public. This graphic created by Duke University Library helps you understand this privilege more fully:

e idea that status impacts your access to information is nothing new.

Juego de roles (role-play): Imagina que tú trabajas en uno de estos puestos de comida, y tu compañero de clase viene a comprar algo de comer. Necesitan hablar de qué quiere, cómo quiere su comida, si quiere algo más y cuánto cuesta. Intenta no usar nada de inglés al hacer la transacción. Entonces tú vas a comprar algo de tu compañero de clase de otro puesto de comida.

Compara estos puestos de comida callejera rápida con la comida rápida en tu pueblo. ¿Cuál es más similar? ¿Cuándo comes este tipo de comida? ¿Hay días feriados o eventos cuando comes más comida callejera?

¿Cuáles de las comidas en el mapa vas a comer hoy o en los próximos días? ¿En cuáles platos o recetas vas a comer esas comidas? (e.g. Voy a comer patatas en papas fritas.)

¿Cuáles de las comidas en el mapa te gustan y cuáles no te gustan?

¿De dónde son las fresas? ¿Y el maíz? ¿Y los tomates? ¿Y las manzanas? ¿Y las naranjas? ¿Y las cebollas? ¿Y el arroz? ¿Y la lechuga? ¿Y el azúcar? ¿Y las patatas?

Imagina que vas a tener una fiesta en tu clase de español. ¿Quieres servir este plato en la fiesta?

El plato que investigas, ¿es picante? ¿Prefieres la comida picante o suave?

¿Tienes un plato similar en la comida tradicional de tu pueblo?

¿Te gustan todos los ingredientes de la receta? ¿Te va a gustar ese plato?

¿Cuál es el ingrediente principal de tu receta? ¿Puedes encontrar el ingrediente en el supermercado de tu barrio?

Is human development best characterized as a slow, gradual process, or is it best viewed as one of the more abrupt changes?

The cognitive domain encompasses the changes in intelligence, wisdom, perception, problem-solving, memory, and language.
