The use and perception of time is one of the specific cultural values that differ cross- culturally. Concepts such as time orientation, punctuality and pace of life are influenced by time-related differences among cultures. Time, particularly, is seen in a different light by Eastern and Western cultures, and even within these groupings assumes quite dissimilar aspects from country to country.
Students are asked to evaluate the concept of time from a cross-cultural perspective, by focusing on the following contents:
– Definition of Time and its importance as a cross-cultural variability
– Critical evaluation of the different aspects of time orientations
– Explanation of the differences among linear, multi-active and cyclic time – Examples of different time economicity in specific cultures
