You are a visitor from a foreign land. You are taking notes on your trip, trying to identify characteristics of the place you are visiting in terms of how they compare to and contrast with your own society.

First, create an identity for yourself based on a historically-informed character from one of the societies in this week’s reading in Chapters 3 and 4:

Next, decide where you are visiting, choosing from among the societies in this week’s reading in Chapters 3 and 4:

After you have established who you are, where you are from and where you are visiting, choose three of the following categories as the basis for comparing your home society and the one you are visiting:

Social structure (What are the different social classes or groups in each society? Are the life experiences similar or different for these groups based on their wealth or social status? How does each society determine what elevates or lowers social status? Is it possible for people in each society to change their social status?)

Political organization (How does government work in each society? Who participates in governance?)

Cultural or technological achievements (What are major cultural or technological accomplishments in each society?)

Legal system (What are the principles of justice in each society? How are they upheld?)

Religious or spiritual systems (What are key religious or spiritual principles that dominate in each society?)

Gender roles or ideals (What roles or behaviors are seen as appropriate or ideal in each society? Be sure to explain if they the same or different for women and men.)

Your initial post due by Day 3 should be a minimum of 300 words. Write up a report detailing who you are, where you are from, where you are visiting, along with your observations on the categories of comparison you have selected from the list above. What details and examples will make your report of interest to your people? What details and examples would fascinate someone reading your report many years later? Capture attention by supplying specific examples drawn from course materials or sources produced by your own research. Cite and format all sources according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center, using both in-text citation and providing full references at the bottom of your post.
