Question Description

Make presentation introducing the class to the culture of a country of your choice. Think about a country that your career might take you to in the future and what you will need to know about the culture of that country before you visit.

To correctly frame this presentation you should pretend that you are responsible for teaching an FIT student Summer intern to visit the country for three months. What should they know about the culture in order to make their visit productive, safe, meaningful and enjoyable? It is your job to make sure they have the right information!
