This document discusses multicultural education and defines key concepts. It begins by defining culture and explaining that culture is learned and transmitted between generations. It then discusses two models of multicultural societies: the melting pot perspective of assimilation, and the salad bowl perspective of pluralism. The melting pot perspective expects minority groups to abandon their cultures and integrate fully into the dominant culture. However, this can suppress diversity and inequality. The salad bowl perspective recognizes cultural pluralism and diversity as strengths in a society. The document argues for expanding multicultural education beyond a sole focus on equity to also include democratic values, cultural pluralism, and global interdependence.

Cross-cultural communication is important for business opportunities, job opportunities, and sharing ideas in an increasingly globalized world. It involves understanding how people from different cultures communicate similarly and differently, and how to communicate across cultural boundaries. A culture is a lens through which people view and understand the world, and see how to express themselves. As cultures come into greater contact with one another, the ability to communicate across cultures becomes more essential.

Intercultural communication Boutkhil Guemide

��

Nowadays, we need to learn how to communicate all over again, just like when we were children. This requires learning language as well as learning behavioral norms for good communication. However, this will be a bit different since we're adults learning how to communicate in someone else's culture, not our own. Intercultural communication is the verbal and nonverbal interaction between people from different cultural backgrounds. Basically, 'inter-' is a prefix that means 'between' and cultural means… well, from a culture, so intercultural communication is the communication between cultures. Sometimes, this is used to describe a single person trying to interact in a foreign environment but more often, it is a two-way street, where people from both cultures are trying to improve their communication.

Blind Spots in AI and Formulation Science Knowledge Pyramid (Updated Perspect...Ajaz Hussain

��

This presentation delves into the systemic blind spots within pharmaceutical science and regulatory systems, emphasizing the significance of "inactive ingredients" and their influence on therapeutic equivalence. These blind spots, indicative of normalized systemic failures, go beyond mere chance occurrences and are ingrained deeply enough to compromise decision-making processes and erode trust. Historical instances like the 1938 FD&C Act and the Generic Drug Scandals underscore how crisis-triggered reforms often fail to address the fundamental issues, perpetuating inefficiencies and hazards. The narrative advocates a shift from reactive crisis management to proactive, adaptable systems prioritizing continuous enhancement. Key hurdles involve challenging outdated assumptions regarding bioavailability, inadequately funded research ventures, and the impact of vague language in regulatory frameworks. The rise of large language models (LLMs) presents promising solutions, albeit with accompanying risks necessitating thorough validation and seamless integration. Tackling these blind spots demands a holistic approach, embracing adaptive learning and a steadfast commitment to self-improvement. By nurturing curiosity, refining regulatory terminology, and judiciously harnessing new technologies, the pharmaceutical sector can progress towards better public health service delivery and ensure the safety, efficacy, and real-world impact of drug products.
