DIFFRENCE IN MANNERS

 

According to levels and roles, each culture has its manner code, polite, or informal ways to behave in society.

Nevertheless, the rules don't always match with different cultures or ways of thinking.

Brother Iver explains some of these different manners and that tourist should be aware, so they won't do any action considered rude or offensive, although they were not intended to be.

There are grades of politeness, according to the roles in society. For example, Monarchy has an ancient settle policy to treat important world people. It starts with inviting o rejecting invitations, welcoming, food service, time, and even clothing. Everything has strict procedures that have to be followed in a precise time and way.

Likewise, according to polite norms, influential people like business people or politics interrelate with similarities based on specific polite rules. For example, Presidents of Countries gathering with other presidents. Or CEOs of big enterprises, people in business, and corporations. They always have to follow specific politeness rules such as punctuality, which warrants a mutually beneficial relationship and trustworthy deals, especially with Asian countries who are very strict in their policies.

Of course, ordinary people also have rules to behave, less strict but essential to know, in this manner, many misinterpretations of attitudes can be avoided, assuring to get along well.

There are some differences in all countries of how to behave, set the table, start eating, get dressed according to events, etc. It reflects the uses and customs of each.

These differences in cultures are brought to the classroom. When abroad students are part of it, teachers should learn about their lifestyle, understand the distinct manners, and enhance students' relationship, making everybody learn from other cultures, enriching their knowledge and consideration for outsiders.

But there are issues with young people learning to fight against the social established status; thus, their behavior is irrational and ridiculous. They are trying to destroy society and culture standards.

And it is a big problem for teachers and parents to introduced them values, good manners, and high spiritual values.

As a parent, I am aware that we have a tough challenge, and we have to work united with teachers to avoid our children get lost in the waves of the changing world.

Would it be possible?

TEACHING METHODS OF THE FUTURE

    VIDEO:  https://youtu.be/UCFg9bcW7Bk 12/10/2020 W05 "Teaching Methods of the Future." Culture creates false needs and false problems, most of which that embarrasses people in any culture might not be considered the same in your or other cultures. It is called a "Culturally-created false problem" happens because of the paradigms that each culture has in their subconscious, which can be part of their ancestral sets of behavior. Example: In Japan: Kissing and hugging and hand-holding in public are not forbidden, but it is deeply frowned upon; Japanese prizes emotional reservations. In many countries, people can show their love fillings anywhere, regardless of whether people are watching them. Years ago, in my Country, Ecuador, when you were introduced to someone, people used to shake hands, but with Chileans and Argentinians' migration learned to kiss on the chick, and now young people think that shaking hands is odd. When my children went to kindergarten, they...

INDIVIDUALISTIC AND COLLECTIVISTIC ORIENTED. VALUES AND EDUCATION

  I am inclined to write about my particular way of thinking about Individualism and collectivism. But before that, let me ponder what   I understand about individual-oriented such as the ordinary American people. They tend to be individualistic, struggling for themselves, and positive achievements like self proficiency, self-determination, self-reliance, self-independent living, etc. All of it comes from a family environment with the same attitude, motivating their children to be so since they are little in the belief that it will lead them to be successful in the future, therefore beneficial for society.    IT is opposed to collective-oriented, who work on behalf of a group, such as family, party, team, etc. Here the expectations to succeed are not individual as far as it influences or aids the group goal. They would never change to another group.   They have a strong belief in unity and elderly or paternal guidance, protection, or control. So failure will...

CULTUR AND PSYCOLOGY

I am going to start writing about Culturally-created Ought self in my Country.  There is a beautiful city called Otavalo, located in the Province of Ibarra, about 3 hours from Quito, the Capital of Ecuador. So the people from there are called Otavaleños, and it is quite interesting that according to studies made by Mormon scientists, the people are the remnant of the Lamanites. Many Otavaleños accepted the church after reading the Book of Mormon, which has been translated into Quechua; it is what they speak. I have to add that it is not a dialect because it fulfills all the components required to be known as Language. People from Otavalo are a very united community, with high moral and spiritual standards, moreover when they discover that were Lamanites.  They have progressed in all manners; they are brilliant, hardworking, dynamic, love to learn; they are loyal to their customs like the white vestment, which is always clean. They wear alpargatas made out of rope, and that t...
