People watching


LSS 2053 Cultural Diversity

People-watching – Reflective task.













Observation Task:

Choose a location such as a café, the Corniche or a mall. Be alone or with a friend.

Sit and look around, and reflect on the scene.

·        Who do you see?

      I see people sitting and chatting together.

·        What do you know about the people, what can you guess?

They are Arabs and some of them are Emiratis

·        What are they doing? Why are they there?

      They are sitting and having chat together and some of them reading the newspaper. They are here because having fun with their friends and their family.

·        How are they interacting with their group or others outside their group?

They listen carefully to each other and show respecting to the others. 

·        How are the people behaving? Are all single men/families/couples behaving in the same way? If not, why and how not? Is the difference culture-based?

They are couples and behaving in the same way

·        Record your observations in notes on your phone/IPad or voice recording.

·        Take photos or a video of the scene (but be aware of sensitivities).
