Day 10 of Positive Psych

My Day 10 of Positive Psychology:


Group Presentations and so much more...

     In class today, we listened to all the presentations about wellbeing in a cross-cultural context, specifically between the United States and Denmark. The topics covered were dating culture, environmental consciousnesses, drinking culture, tax system, body image, and Christiania land.  I found it very interesting to learn about all the different topics and all the unique discussion activities, such as the speed dating, drinking "water" game, gummy sharing, and drawing pictures. One of the presentations that I found was interesting was the comparison between Danish and American dating cultures. I found it interesting that the group of girls all got tinder accounts in Denmark, got a lot of 'swipe rights', and were able to ask dating questions from the source. I am not surprised by the straightforwardness and aggressiveness they got on Tinder for responses. Guys across all cultures are very persistent, and dating online apps are easy methods to be resolute/fixed on getting a date/keep a conversation going with a girl. The speed dating activity was a clever group discussion activity, and I have done similar ice breakers in college too. Overall, I am impressed by everyone's presentations and have a great, memorable time in Positive Psychology (Copenhagen, Denmark) with the coolest kids on the block.
