Evaluation: Each group had different rules to the game. When I was rotated to another group, I did not realize that rules were different until a girl in the end took the pile of cards when clearly someone else should have taken it. It was hard for us to communicate because I was at first protesting but thought maybe I was going a bit crazy. The rules were different, and I did not make an attempt to keep my own rule from my culture. I acquiesced whatever the rule was. The group I was in talked most of the time, so they did not value the no talking rule. I realized that with our own culture group mixing into others showed me that everyone is different. We all have different ways of how to act when rules are different and it gets quite confusing. It is important to understand and interpret other people as we mix and try to help them adapt or acquiesce to their rules. Each culture is different and we all have different standards of what is acceptable or not. Some simply stick to their own rules and some acquiesce and adapt. This is how cultural diversity came about and a rule of the old does not matter anymore. This has expanded globally and extensively in its contextual references.
