Prepare a PowerPoint presentation that focuses on a different culture that you would like to learn to communicate with effectively. At a minimum, the presentation should include the following elements:

  1. Overview of the      culture
  2. Key characteristics      of the culture that should be learned before communications begin
  3. Compare/contrast      the culture with your culture.
  4. Create a culture      communication plan specifically for your chosen culture that will help you      and your workplace to conduct effective communications.
  5. Provide a      summary/recommendations for your organization to move forward with      training for cultural communication.

Your presentation should be a minimum of 15 content slides (not including the title slide and references slide). Your slides should include either speaker notes placed in the “notes” section of the slide. In addition, you should have a minimum of three scholarly sources. References should be written in proper APA formatting.

Instructions:  

The Notes panel of your slides will contain your speech script; this will be word-for-word exactly what you would say to accompany each slide. Be sure to read your speech aloud several times so that you’re confident that the language you’re using sounds conversational and not like a term paper or essay. Remember to use transitional words and phrases to make your speech flow smoothly.

It’s critical to cite the sources that back up your points and subpoints.

  • Answer each question FULLY, and in paragraph form. Each paragraph MUST HAVE a thesis/topic sentence. That thesis/topic sentence must have EVIDENCE to back it up. You must give an EXPLANATION of your evidence, no matter how obvious that explanation may be. This is NOT NEGOTIABLE and a REQUIREMENT for every question.
  • Under no circumstances should you leave any question blank. Even if you are uncertain of your answer, giving any answer at all is better than not answering a question. Essay questions allow you to show what you know: so, show what you know, even if you are unsure of your answer. Any answer is better than no answer at all.
  • Each answer will be graded based on the following criteria:

-is the form of the answer correct/does the answer include evidence? I don’t have to agree with your arguments, but you have to articulate your answers asARGUMENTS, and arguments include evidence (-4).

-is the answer logically consistent (-2)?

-does the answer make any non-factual assertions (-2)?

-is the grammar and language of the answer clear and correct (-2)

  • The final deadline for submission of this exam is 1PM, July 29, 2019. You must submit your finished exam, to me via email by then. If for any reason, you are unable to meet this deadline, you must contact me as soon as you realize that your submission will be late.
