Assignment: Intercultural Sensitivity Reflection

According to Tervalon and Murray-García (1998), developing cultural humility requires a lifetime commitment to self-evaluation and self-critique. In other words, you must routinely assess what you do not know about cultures that are different from your own. One of the underlying assumptions of culturally humility is that there is always more to learn.

For this assignment, you will take an ungraded intercultural sensitivity quiz and write a brief reflection paper on your results, which will give you insight about what you still need to learn about different cultures and cultural issues. Please do not prepare for the quiz ahead of time or search the Internet for the correct answer during the quiz.
