Anthropology DIG experiment

Engage in an interactive anthropology project that invites you and your group to create and analyze a new culture. Start by developing your culture's unique customs, norms, holidays, and values using a guided sheet. Then, select 15 representative items and provide explanations of their cultural significance with visuals. Exchange sheets with another group to analyze their culture based solely on their chosen items, followed by a discussion to uncover true cultural insights. Finally, reflect on your assumptions and learn from the other group’s real culture. This immersive experience enhances understanding of cultural diversity.
