The purpose of this course is to develop an understanding of how cultural context shapes communication, specifically, how the cultural context influences and affects communication across different cultures.  Students will learn to identify ethnocentrism and shared assumptions of their own culture and understand how these affect their ability to present our own ideas to those of another culture.
