exploring the literature
This week’s readings include descriptions and guidelines for working with various cultures. Some of these groups may be familiar to you, while others may not. As you read, try to identify important elements of each culture that would be crucial for you to know and understand as a professional psychologist working with members of these groups. Also consider topics related to cultural competence and ethics that most interest you and why.
Post by Day 4 a description of at least two topics from the required reading about which you have strong interest. Explain why you would like to learn more about your chosen topics and how you believe knowledge about them might improve your skills and abilities to become an ethically and culturally competent psychologist.
Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings.
Respond by Day 6 to at least one colleague’s post in one of the following ways:
- Validate an idea with your own experience.
- Expand upon your colleague’s post.
- Describe one way that you might collaborate with a colleague on a shared topic of interest while in-residence.
