While globalization at times is an overwhelming concept, it can be readily grasped in our daily lives. This course itself is a great example as we come together from all over the world to learn and share ideas together! Write a short essay (2 to 2.5 pages), reflecting on the ways in which your own life is globalized. You are encouraged to approach this topic from a wide variety of perspectives, but a few examples might include: Things that you do (where you work, go to school, entertainment and cultural activities) How you do things (for example, getting a meal at McDonalds can be a very different experience compared with most local customary eating habits; how you dress) People you encounter (friends, family, colleagues, neighbours and other contacts you may have) Changes around you (immigration and emigration, changing employment opportunities in your hometown, environmental issues).
