Identify and illustrate your awareness of non-verbal communication through the examination of a different culture. Select a country other than the United States or RUSSIA.  Discuss the culture in terms of three (3) of the five characteristics of nonverbal communication.

• Kinesics – How are eye contact, facial expression, gestures, and posture measured in the culture?

• Paralanguage – What are some of the vocal aspects (i.e., pitch, rate, dialect, and volume) of the culture?

• Self-presentation – How does the culture dress? What about grooming? How do they feel about touch and time?

• Proxemics – How does the culture treat space, distance, lighting, color, and temperature?

• Other cultural considerations – How does gift giving, religious observations, appropriate title use, etc. affect non-verbal communication?
