Getting to Know You through Sharing Food

One way of getting to know one another better is through the sharing of food.  In North America, rather than providing a whole meal, a time and place is determined and everyone attending brings something to eat.  This is a potluck dinner or meal; the “host” may provide a main dish or a few more items than the “guests” but generally everyone shares in the dinner’s success.

Having a potluck in this course allows students to socialize and get to know one another better.  During the course, students will have to work with one another in three different assignments.  What better way to meet a partner than over food?  Since potlucks are so enjoyable, we have them even at the end of the semester!
