Week 15 : Encountering Difference: Seeing Yourself as Other

Understanding how others see you and realizing that your identity is not just how you see yourself, but also how you are viewed by different people in different situations.

When you experience a new culture or interact with people from different backgrounds, you may start to see yourself in a new way, sometimes as an “outsider” or someone different from the majority.

In Unit 2 assignment, I tried to experience being “other” when I think what kind of gift should choose to her. I realise that when you see yourself through someone else’s perspective, you start to notice things about your own culture, habits, and identity that you may not have thought about before.

When I am writing a script or telling a story to others, I am role playing to present the story or idea better. When I experience being “other,” I learn what it feels like to be different. This helps me to respect and understand people from different cultures.
