Understanding Culture
Learning Target: I can explain how culture determines and influences people's behavior and values.
We will be looking at past OH yearbooks looking at trends in style in order to understand how the unwritten rules of culture influence how people groom, dress and make other decisions.
1) In your pair, get your yearbooks from a single year.
2) In the senior photos, you will be counting the number of students that meet certain criteria out of the first certain number of students.
3) In your yearbook, mark the 20th boy, the 20th girl, and the 40th person.
4) Use the google form in the classroom, do your counts for the criteria.
5) When done, you will get read access to the google sheet.
6) Make a copy of the sheet.
7) Using the data in the sheet, make 3 charts (4 for honors) and creat a Loom presentation explaining how culture determines and influences behavior and values. Additionally, the presentation will use personal examples to analyze how you are influenced by culture.
