 This is a 800 word blog entry where you apply some theory to your own experience.
 You should reflect on an incident in your own experience where a knowledge of some cultural theory would have helped you to understand what was happening at the time.
 Formative Assessment – you will submit a draft of the first part of your blog for your
tutor’s feedback. It will be submitted by week 6 and marked and returned to students
by week 7. It will not be given a mark but will be given feedback. It will then be re submitted with part 2 incorporating amendments following your tutor’s suggestions.
