Challenge 5

What is cultural identity and cultural hybridity?

My identity:
Family/friends
Work/study
Ethnic/languages/religion
Nationality/politics
Cosmopolitan
Diaspora
Multi-level religion groups.


There are four types of types of hybridity
1.     Artifacts
2.     Texts
3.     Practices
4.     People
The following concepts in life are important to me:
-       Identity - who am I? Respect me as I am, but I'm willing to listen to you criticism and think about it, but don't ever try to change me.
-       Social bonds - my friends and family are probably the most important in my life.
-       World Citizen - I see myself as a world citizen, in the world we are grown together, and the world has become smaller the past years.

In order to develop teaching materials we can use the 4 activities we have used tonight

Make pie chart
Let children notice hybrid artifacts
Let children have debates
Let children work with personal documents


I learned some tools, and some concepts which will be useful for me in my future. I found out how I actually prioritize in my life when it comes to my personal life
