Rationale
Culture is multifaceted and influences human experience and world views in a variety of ways. Health and human service
professionals require an understanding of this complexity and personal self-awareness of their own cultured self to be able to
be culturally responsive with service users and colleagues. The portfolio assembles student responses to a range of tasks
across the trimester to demonstrate this knowledge and personal insight.
Task Instructions
Throughout the trimester, you will complete a series of tasks embedded in the weekly online modules and compile these into
a single APA-formatted Microsoft Word Document for submission. You must include a title page that follows APA 7th
formatting standards as part of your submission.
