Education / Pedagogy / Education | | English term or phrase: Embeddedness | CONTEXT: OBSERVING AND RECORDING THE BEHAVIOR OF YOUNG CHILDREN
Biased attitudes can cause teachers to make incorrect decisions about children’s capabilities and potential for learning.
EMBEDDEDNESS in one’s own culture can also interfere with seeing children objectively. Familiar cultural customs, even the way we phrase what we say, can stand in the way of understanding or appreciating what others mean by their behavior. For example, an Asian-American author, writing about a black boycott of Korean grocers in Brooklyn, N.Y., was shocked to hear a black resident comment that “The Koreans are a very rude people. They don’t understand you have to smile.”
¿Would she have reacted differently had she known smiling at strangers just isn’t part of the Korean culture, for they equate being solicitous to being insincere? The Korean demeanor is the absence of a demeanor. Koreans have a name for it: “mu-pyo-jung.” It means “lack of expression.”
¿QUEDA CLARO SI DIGO “El estar EMBEBIDOS en nuestra propia cultura…?
Denme sus opiniones y sugerencias, por favor.
¡Gracias desde ya, amigos! |

Espero que te ayude \"enraizamiento cultural\": it sounds good for
\"cultural embeddedness\". Just another option. Take it or leave it!
