Some "cultural givens" are so deeply imbedded in thought patterns they lead to communication breakdowns. View and discuss this series of eye opening cross-cultural situations. Observe how "cultural givens" such as "getting right to the point", "saving face," taking turns in conversation, and saying "yes" or "no" complicate inter-cultural communication. Allow a multi-cultural cast to teach your students practical guidelines for communicating between cultures
