This course was developed to help you recognize and appreciate the differences and the similarities among diverse groups and individuals in a multicultural society.Living in the U.S.A. in the 21st century poses some of the most complex challenges this nation has ever faced. Our dependence on technology and fossil fuels, our addiction to 24/7 media, the changes in immigration, and the unparalleled quest to accumulate personal property have all created increased class stratification as well as segregation throughout our society. Global interdependence has brought the world closer together which means the impact of natural disasters, hunger, disease, and international conflicts now affects the whole planet.Expected Student OutcomesAt the end of the course you should be able to:1. Recognize the societal implications of our nation's changing demographics.2. Explain the importance of understanding and respecting cultural differences.3. Develop strategies to promote intercultural awareness between different groups and among individuals within these groups.
