Assignment:

Cultural awareness, biases, and differences are very hard to convey in a lecture or written format. People want to believe that they are fair and open-minded and are often very surprised to discover that they have feelings they were not aware of or that are very different from those of some of their peers in the classroom. The films included here are intended to help us discover our feelings and possible biases.

The first film is a short video where Howard J. Ross, Founder and Chief Learning Officer of Cook Ross Inc., talks about myths and misconceptions about culturally competent care. He includes tips and strategies to use CultureVision to gain an understanding of cultural patterns and improve patient outcomes.
