Pod Reveal and Culture Box Activity

Culture Box is one of the first opportunities students experience towards building connection with their classmates via the pod group. Focusing on the major or high-level influences in one's life story, Culture Box is an opportunity to reflect and discuss how our experiences are similar and different. Goals of this exercise include increasing self-awareness and intercultural capacity, perspective taking, and better understanding the forces that shape our individual motivations.
