Description

With personal interviews of real people around the world conducted by People Are Culture founder Meg Pier, each of the 14 lessons in this unit focuses on a different dimension of a universal cultural practice, specifically: Architecture, Archaeology, Dance, Festivals, Folk Art, Food, Landscape, Language, Maritime, Music, Preservation, Spirituality, Textiles, and Visual Arts.

Each of these lessons explores the meaning and relevance of traditions and customs, and demonstrates the real-life impact of historical events and social change. Each lesson also reveals our unique differences and our shared humanity.

The 14-lesson unit represents approximately 42 hours of learning, with each lesson is likely to take a student three hours to do the readings and complete the comprehension/reflection exercises. T

Expected Learning Outcome:

This lesson includes clear expected learning outcomes that support students in understanding cultural identity through first-person perspectives, while building intercultural awareness and connections between individual experience and global traditions.

Students will identify and describe key cultural practices and beliefs from the lesson’s focus community (i.e., Indian culture).
Students will articulate insights into their own cultural identities and how those identities relate to what they learned.
Students will analyze how cultural expressions (like art, textiles, and handicrafts) reflect values, history, and social traditions.
Students will compare perspectives across cultures while finding similarities and differences through human themes.
Students will make connections between cultural traditions and broader global contexts (globalization, sustainability, cultural preservation), showing critical thinking about identity and intercultural understanding.

Each of these lessons explores the meaning and relevance of traditions and customs, and demonstrates the real-life impact of historical events and social change.
