Abstract:
Family values is one of the topics covered in Cross Culture Understanding (CCU) class. Delivering the topics regarding various techniques to apply is challenging because the materials are mostly knowledge oriented. Implementing Privilege Walk might be a choice of activity that exposes the students to the materials to help them in internalizing the concepts. Privilege Walk is aimed to make the students identify their privileges in their lives even when they are not aware that the privileges are happening. It is not to blame anyone for having different privileges over others due to religion, race, education, family nurture, etc. The procedure of the activity might take 30–45 minutes depending on the ideas raised. The students take one step back or forward if one statement applies to them. If it is not relevant or if they do not feel comfortable, they do not have to move. The activity was carried out in three CCU classes of Batch 2013 in Odd Semester, Academic Year 2015/2016. The observation was made by the teacher. The study reveals that the students showed enthusiasm in discussing the ideas. It promotes more student centered learning. Teacher is the facilitator for some key ideas which are missed.
