Culture is the evolving way of life of a group of persons, consisting of a shared set of practices associated with a shared set of products, based on a shared set of perspectives on the world, and set within specific social contexts. --Patrick R. Moran Teaching Culture: Perspectives in Practice

When encountering a cultural element… Ponder these questions: • What are the products? • What are the practices? • Who are the people involved? • Which specific communities take part? The answers will give insight into the cultural perspectives underlying perceptions, values, beliefs, ideology and attitudes
