The six Dimensions according to
the Caterpillars.
Tim - Shannon - Tanya - Cynthia
Geography
Geographically we are located
in the Landsdowne Campus at Camosun college in Victoria BC, Canada.
More specifically, we're located in room 238 of the Fisher building.
Our room is rectangular and white with no windows and a big green chalk
board at the front of the class. The caterpillars are located at
the back right of the class from Dr. Phils standpoint.
Demographics
Demographically we are all
aporoximatley of the same age group (Young Adults). In terms of changes
the class size seems to fluctuate from class to class with people not showing
up and especailly with people dropping the class. Our group dropped
from 7 to 4.
Technology
In this class each student
takes notes in their binders or note books and listens to the Dr in order
that they can retain and understand the information. All of the caterpillars
dress simalarly according to their gender and speak and read in English.
The caterpillars also makes use of desks, tables, a chalk board and an
over-head projector.
Economy
Aside from the fact that
each student is responsible in some form to pay a portion of their studen
fees, each work group contributes to their own economy in that they all
provide a service to the group. One example of a service to the group
is the work of a scribe. A scribe provides the service of relaying
messages to the Dr. and recording information shared in the group.
The caterpillars scribe is Tim Gauthier.
Political
In this organisation, our
sociology 100 class, the figure that has the most amount of authority to
the class and even the work groups is Dr Phil in that his opinions and
teachings hold the most amount of influence. Specifically to members
of the caterpillars we all hold the same amount of political authority
or influence in that we all seem to contribute equally to discussions and
each contribution is weighed carefully in our decision making process.
Institutional
The institutional dimension
to this class is that most people sit in the same spots and next to the
same people. Also our Totemic work groups are assigend so it's guaranteed
that we as a group will meet at least once per class. In our totemic
work group the same pattern seems to be evident in that we seemed to sit
next to the same people in our work group every class. During break
time we also seperate and usually meet up the same people / person every
break.
Values
In this class we are tested
in a fashion attributes our knowledge of right vs. wrong. Our totemic
work groups are a good oppurtunity for us decipher what we believe to be
right or wrong about our sociological perspectives. Aslo in our groups
we operate in a fashion where we listen to someone when the offer a suggestion
to the group as we believe isn't fair to ignore someone's opinions or suggestions...
an example of how our vaules effects the we do class business.
Worldview
On a sociological worldview
persective we find that over all we all beleive in the same concepts as
the sun coming up and if we drop a pencil gravity will pull it to the ground
*text book examples, but on a spirtual level we differ individually in
that we don't all believe that God created man in his image *another phil
bartle text book example, but we learn to work together on our common ground
concepts even if we differ spiritually. We all have an apparent belief
in that our education is going to help us reach our goals or most of us
wouldn't be here.

The Wasps - And then there were
three...
Here we look at the six cultural
dimensions plus demography and geography.
Geography
The Geography includes Camosun
College, Landsdowne Campus, Victoria, BC, Canada as our physical location.
We are located on the South West Coast of Canada where the temperature
and climate, on average is fairly mild. Our classroom environment consists
of a range of people, various ages in an educational setting. Classmates
appear to be attentive and relaxed for an overall easy going type of environment.
Demography
Our demography includes our
classroom population which has dwindled from 35
people down to 21 people. Our totemic
group, in particular has lost 4 members from the original 7 we started
with. (Yikes, was it something we said??)
Technology
The technology withing our
specific classroom setting includes our writing
instruments, school supplies, chalkboard,
tables and chairs, overhead
projector, and electricity. Some
classrooms also have access to the internet, computers/laptops. The building
our classroom is in is also considered technology. Our use of the English
language and sign language plus our lecture material and lecture notes
as tools for teaching and learning also represent technology.
Economy
Examples of economy within
the classroom includes our text books, course fees, copy material and our
exchange of tuition for education including fees paid to the instructor
as well as fees paid to the sign language interpreter.
Political
The main source of political
influence within this classroom is of course, our instructor as the authority
figure. Within our totemic group, the naming of an emissary, scribe and
lawyer also carry a certain type of political structure.
Institutional
The relationships consist
primarily of student-teacher relationships and
peer-peer relationships within
the classroom. We have a tribal structure which has established a certain
pattern of interaction between classmates as well as overall class behaviour
patterns which involve note taking, learning, and
communication.
Values
Ideological values include
education/learning and the committment to succeed, freedom of speech, respect
for others and self as well as shared information between peers.
Worldview
Our worldview is individually
different and includes our own religious beliefs, and our role as students
in an educational setting where we study and learn. We know and believe
that to be successful in class requires study, effort and committment.

Dr. Phil,
Here is the worksheet information
from the Angelfish group.
The family, organization, or community:
Soc 160 class - Jan. 28, 2005
Geography:
This community is located
in Victoria, BC at Camosun College in room Fisher 200. The room is plain
and windowless.
Demography:
The total population of the
community was 30 by the end of the
class. (28 students, 1 interpreter,
1 professor.) Over the course of the
period, the population increased,
with late arrivals bumping it up to the 30. The population had been 27
at the beginning of the class. Within group
Angelfish, there were 4 students
and one interpreter. From our group, one
member has dropped since the beginning
of the course, and 2 two were absent
today. The class did not have a
high density. Groups were fairly spread out.
Technology:
Many tools were being used,
and others were present but not in use. Some of them were personal capital:
pens, notebooks, and paper. Other tools
included: desks, chairs, walls
& ceiling, audio/visual equipment, blackboard, and a clock. While all
different, the people within the community were all wearing west coast
clothing, specific to our current weather climate (no parkas, as might
be the case if we lived in Prince George). Language was being used as a
tool as well in English (both written and spoken), American sign language,
a Japanese/English translating device, and through body language.
Economy:
From a monetary point of
view, we consider the tuition we've all paid to be here part of the Economy
dimension. We've also invested money in our
personal capital items listed above.
We are receiving a service in the form of the lectures and seminars we're
attending. For an example of the shared wealth, we came up with fresh air.
As noted in the geography above, the classroom had no windows and no real
breeze coming into the room. It can easily become stuffy in a room like
that, leading to drowsiness assisted by the poor lighting. Thereby making
fresh air both useful and scarce.
Political:
For the most part, we see
the community as being very Egalitarian,
with the small exception that the
professor holds some more power in the end. While all of our opinions might
count, the professor is still the one who in the end chooses the daily
activities and marks our papers. Also, we saw me (Susan) as having a small
level of power in the group because I had the sheet, and was therefore
leading the discussion. (Similar to the !kung's leader of the hunt.)
Institutional:
We recognized many different
institutions and have included a few that we felt encompassed the entire
community. We all posses a certain level of respect for the instructor.
When he speaks, we listen. We have structure within the class in the form
of the group's assigned roles: scribe, lawyer, and emissary. We all came
into the class with expectations of how lectures and seminars were conducted.
In some cases, our institutions have changed due to the varied and different
structure this class takes as opposed to a math class, for instance.
Values:
Aesthetically, we see clothing
as a secondary component here as well as in Tools and Institutional. If
someone weren't wearing clothes, or a strange
combination, we'd make a judgement
of them. The majority of us value the
importance of the lectures and
attempt to make it to each of them. We'd all
consider cheating wrong. We all
value hardwork.
Worldview:
We all hold different religious
beliefs. But as a whole, we also have similar beliefs. We all believe in
gravity, for instance. We know that if we
hold up our notebooks and then
release them, they will fall to the ground. As a group, we share the view
that we will each get 100% in this course. :)

From: "erin t."
hey dr. phil,
once again I'm a touch slow
submitting this...and once again, I send my apologies.
This is from the Koi group:
geography-
Our class meets in the Fisher
200 at Camosun College, in Victoria, B.C. It includes things like carpet,
chairs, flourecent lights a cement pillar etc.
demography-
The class consists of 28
people (at time of census) with changes due to people dropping out, or
leavingi the class momentarily. Our subgroup (the Koi) has five members
at the time of census.
technology-
The tools used in our environment
includes a television, overhead, chalkboard, a computer, common language,
lights, glasses, watches, a clock, pens, chalk and books.
economy-
The basic unit of our economy
is perhaps knowledge. Our professor is the bearer of this scarce and useful
good. Distribution occurs through class handouts, discussions, lectures
and projects.
political-
Our political structure is
a small degree authoritarian, with Dr. Phil as our head. Between the members
of the class, and our smaller subgroup the Koi, is fairly utilitarian,
with a desire for consesus when making decisions.
institutional-
Some institutions that determine
the way we interact inlude"the classroom", "the professor", "the student",
and the "interpreter."
values-
The pervasive ideology in
Canada is liberal-democratic; this inevitably finds its way into our classroom.
Aside from that our common values include respect for authority (our political
leader Dr. Phil) and mutual respect for each others values.
worldview-
Our classroom contains a
diverse range of religious beliefs. While we may not agree on religious
perspectives we do all belief in the legitimacy of each one, and respect
that diversity.
thanks dr. phil. see you in class,
erin

From: Sian M
Siamese Fighting Fish here! This
is our Ethnography of our Sociology 160 class.
Geography:
We decided that our Sociology
class is very accessible because it is
located in town and is easily reached
by bus to many of the attending
student. The campus, where
the class is located, is also accessible
by car and has ample parking for
students who wish to drive to school.
The class is located in a very
safe environment. We believe it is
safe because the school has different
types of safety measures for
students. For example, our
school has safe walk programs, lights in
the parking lot and emergency phone
boxes.
The class is located in a
school that has environmentally friendly
programs such as composting facilities
and recycling gardens. We
believe that all students have
the ability and opportunity to take
part in the ecology of our campus.
Demography:
We found that the population
of our class has diminished in relation
to the start of the semester.
To date, 31 people attended class
versus the estimated 45 people
at the beginning of the semester.
As the semester goes forward,
we have noticed that there is a change
in the class attendance.
It seems that less people show up for
lectures. We are not sure
why people are not showing up to the
lectures, however; we speculate
that it may be due to illnesses or
more pressing personal matters.
The density of our Sociology
160 class appears to depend on which
classroom we are in. When
our lectures take place in the larger
classroom, people tend to situate
themselves sparsely around the room.
It appears that when the
students have a choice of where they sit,
they choose to be more spaced out.
When the lecture is held in the
smaller classroom the student have
less of a choice where they sit and
therefore, they sit together.
Technology:
Our class utilizes many tools
to assist them in communicating, and
note taking. There is a variation
between the types of tools used for
note taking. The majority
of people tend to use a pen or pencil and
paper whereas others use higher
technology tools such as a PDA. Most
of the students use texts books
and/or Dr. Phil's web site as a
learning tool. It is a requirement
that all students have access to
an email account and this is a
tool, as well as telephones, that
allows the students and Dr. Phil
to keep in contact.
The capital is the textbooks
and the notes we take from lecture. Both
of these items have utility and
are relatively scarce.
The physical plant is the college
where the class is held. The
college is a place where we can
sit comfortably, take notes and listen
to the Doctor without disturbances.
At this school every student
has the means to wear clothing. It is,
in fact, a requirement to wear
clothing when in public view and
therefore necessary that all students
be clothed when they attend
class.
In our class we speak English
and sign language is used to communicate
with the person who is hearing
impaired. All students have equal
opportunity to communicate with
the class and will be listened to when
speaking.
Economy:
The school has many programs
that are designed for people in need.
These programs include daycare
programs, and the women's centre. The
school also has resources available
for students such as the library
and the bookstore. At the
library students can borrow books or view
the books that are on reserve if
they are unable to purchase the books
from the bookstore. Financial
aid is also available for students
needing financial help when attending
school. There is bursary and
scholarships available to those
students who qualify as well.
In class all the students
have the ability to meet and discuss any
problems with Dr. Phil. For
example, if a student has an issue with
an assignment the student may see
Dr. Phil during his office hours.
Political:
Power and Authority are typically
aspects of the professor of the
course. However, in this
class students have the ability to hold
authority also. For example,
Dr. Phil assigned authority to each of
us in our groups and as well when
we talk in group lectures.
Every student is randomly
assigned to a group and within that group we
think that the students all influence
one another. The professor also
influences the students.
The professor makes the ultimate
decisions for the entire class but he
also gives individuals the chance
to make decisions within his
boundaries.
Institutional:
There are two different types
of interaction that occur within the
classroom. It is typical
that the class engages in both small group
discussions as well as large lectures.
Students tend to sit in the same
seats every class and seldom move.
The teacher is usually situated
at the front of the class and the
students sit in the rows of seating.
However, sometimes when we have
lecture in the smaller classroom
Dr. Phil will sit with us and we
organize our tables in an equal
circle shaped fashion.
Most students have developed
a relationship with the professor. Some
students have created new relationships
with other students whereas
others came in with pre-existing
friendships.
Values:
All the members of the class
appear to have respect for one another
yet they still maintain their own
individual values and judgements.
This is apparent in our assigned
groups because although we might all
not get along we will work together
towards a common goal despite our
misgivings. The members of
the group will most likely choose not to
voice opinions to one another that
would be interpreted and
disrespectful or hurtful.
Worldview:
In our class we are accepting
of all religions. We have many
different religions in our class
and it make for diverse and
interesting discussions.
The students in our class generally believe
that other students can be free
to choose whatever religion they see
fit. Also, most students
seem to show a genuine interest in a
religion that is not their own.
Students come into the class
with a preconceived set of beliefs and
contribute them to the discussions
in class. Not only does this make
for interesting discussions but
it also opens up other people to
different perspectives. All
the students also come into the class
with the preconceived notion that
the teacher will teach us and we
will walk away more knowledgeable.
However, in this class many other
aspects, not just the professor,
influence us and as a result we
become more enlightened.

Six Dimensions Plus Two
Piranha Group
In this exercise we are describing
the six dimensions within our sociology 160 class. Starting with the first
dimension geography, in which we described our location
within Canada, British Columbia, Victoria at Camosun College at 3100 Foul
bay rd. Our gathering for this particular day took place in the Fisher
building, classroom 200. Our environment was a college classroom and the
ecological components consist of synthetic, prefabricated materials, inhabited
by people, oxygen, and possibly other living things.
The next dimension tackled
was the Demographic components such as population,
changes, and density. The population of the classroom in total was 31,
this including one male teacher and one female interpreter. The changes
that could be observed consisted of late coming students, a decrease in
attendance and a considerable difference between male and female students
that were interested in taking the class (22 females/7 males). The density
of the classroom is generally quite full since it is a small space and
there are many students.
Technology,
the third of the dimensions covers Tools, Capital, Physical Plant, Clothing
and Language). The tools in the classroom consisted of pens, chairs, tables,
screen, computer, television, VCR, overhead, chalkboard, brushes, podium,
etc. Usually all aids used in teaching. We looked at the capital within
the room like cell phones, access to a bathroom and elevator, literacy.
Everyone thankfully was clothed according to season and climate. We have
a diverse group when language is observed, as there are all kinds of language
spoken varying from sign language to non-verbal communication.
The economy
within the classroom consisted of monetary wealth, instructor salary, interpreter
fees, and I’m positive a huge amount of student debt. The distribution
is dependent much on the instructor in which we as the students do the
work.
Political
power is made up of Dr. Phil, in which the students adhere to and listen
to directly. The college structure is a larger organization in which our
small community is a part of; they hold powerful positions over the students
and instructors. Each individual in the classroom shares influences and
attains power in decisions.
The institutional
aspect includes the interaction of the teacher student relationship, the
group relationships, and the smaller personal relationships between classmates.
We are all part of the larger non-attending institution. Patterns we can
follow are observing the expected teachers role to educate, the students
hand rising when a question arises, the grades we receive at the end of
the term and our compliance with the curriculum.
There are varying values
in our classroom within religious and non- religious beliefs. Differences
in personal beliefs such as grading objectivity and opinion are diverse
within the classroom. The college’s policy on plagiarism is an example
as well of enforced values that those who wish to succeed need to comply
with. We can assume that those who attend class share the value of education,
and a common interest in families and communities.
Although we all congregate
within the same class, our worldviews are those of
the individual, some more so then others. Many students come from different
backgrounds; so much of our worldview is dependent on our life experiences.
Being in an educational setting, the new information that we are processing
is constantly being discarded, adapted or manipulated depending on our
diverse worldviews.

Hi Dr. Phil,
Here's the work we did today.
By: The Puffer Fish: Heather D,
Margaret S, Andrew T and myself, Heather G.
Our community: Our Soc 160
class as it was today.
Geography:
We were situated in F200,
Landsdowne Campus, Camosun College (flat terrain) today. Ecology included
instructor to students interaction, student to instructor interactions
and student to student interactions, as well as Interpretor to student
and instructor interactions.
Demography:
There were 27 students present,
one instructor and one interpretor. The population has experienced
a permanent decrease due to some students dropping the course, as well
as a temporary decrease due to perhaps illness or other unknown events.
Technology-
Our class technology includeds
all of the features of the classroom including the four walls, desks, tables,
chairs, a computer, VCR, overhead projector, reference materials, a clock,
lights, as well as our personal belongings we brought with us to class
such as notebooks, pens, etc.
Economy-
Wealth within our class could
include individual interaction with the instructor , as well as seminar
time. Money wise, we concluded there were at least two members with
significant employment, including the instructor and the interpretor, as
well as plenty of part time employment. We also concluded that a
good chunk of that money goes to Camosun and particularly the book store!
Political-
Our class takes on a sort
of hybrid model of political power, alternating for a fascist set-up with
the the instructor lecturing the the student to a more cooperative environment
in seminars and work groups. Outside of our classroom, the students
have the code of ethics which details their rights and responsibilities
and the instructor has the dean of the department, both parties are under
the head honcho dean of the college. A broader perspective would
also include the governments affect on the education of the students and
the job and salary of the instructor and possibly the interpretor.
Institutional-
We meet twice week for 2
80 minute classer, that break down roughly into a seminar and a lecture.
There is a social contract that exists in among ourselves in less formal
situations, such as work groups. There are also interactions outside
of our classroom including e-mail and office or cafeteria time.
Values-
Voicing ones opinion in encourage
in our class, a well as e-mail. Making derogatory comments or being
disrespectful of othere thoughts and opinions in not allowed.
Worldview-
Our clas has many ethnic
backgrounds, providing a global perspective in respect to religion, beliefs,
etc, and daily life.

Hi Dr. Phil
I have been thinking about
the Six Dimensions of Culture. Where would an issue such as crime be within
the dimensions. So far, my understanding is that the dimensions are
fluid and that each is required for a complete view of a community. Having
said that, does crime fall into one particular dimension or do all the
dimensions move through crime? For instance could crime be characterized
in both the institutional and economic dimensions?
I'm trying to get a picture
of how to apply the dimensions to any community I might study.
Thanks
Allison G
==========
Dear Allison
Yes, Some
people say that bank robbery and rape are bad. Perhaps not the perpetrators.
In any case this is a value judgement, eg good versus bad, so it belongs
to the values dimension of culture.
If a crime is
carried out in a remarkably elegant manner, that, too, is a judgement --
beautiful versus ugly -- which belongs to the same dimension.
Yes, the
criminal, and his victims, all have beliefs. Perhaps difficult to determine
them, but none the less things belonging to the world view dimension.
When you
work with inmates in a penitentiary, you discover a culture of prisoner
or culture of criminal. It is characterized by anti authority values (especially
against "bulls" -- police officers and prison guards).
At 09:20 AM 01/28
Allison Guevin wrote:
Okay, now I am thinking
about the criminal rather that the crime; then the aesthetic - values dimension
and the beliefs - conceptual dimension are applicable also.
The values that the criminal demonstrates through his actions, although
not shared by the mainstream community, are values non the less.
They are his judgements and they are very difficult to change within the
community.
The beliefs - conceptual
dimension speaks to worldview and and peoples role in the world around
them. The criminal has a world view and, based on his actions, it
involves criminal behavior and his role becomes one of a rule breaker.
Is this the kind of approach
needed when utilizing the Six Dimensions of Culture when working in any
community?
==================
From: Phil Bartle

Of course
if, during the course of a crime, something of values is
distributed,
eg when a bank robber obtains some money during a robbery, or
a rapist gains
some satisfaction during a sexual assault, then this is part
of the economic
dimension.
Date: Thu, 27 Jan
From: "Jamie G"
Here we, the Praying
Mantis group, describe the family, organization or community using
the six cultural dimensions plus demography and geography.
GEOGRAPHY
This Class room is located
in Saanich BC Canada, at the Landsdown campus of Camosun College in the
Fisher building on the second floor in room 238. Canada is in North America
on the planet that we as a global society label
as "Earth". The atmosphere in our
classroom is content, eager and easygoing.
DEMOGRAPHY
Our Class started with 32
people and has now shrunk to 23 people as of
01/26/2005. In the class there
are 5 different sub cultures, each with their own distinguished totemic
identity. Each group contains 4-5 people. Outside
of these groups, there is an instructor,
and a learning aid.
TECHNOLOGY
The technological aspect
in the room consists of tables and chairs allowing
us to do our work. The lights and
blackboard enable us to see what material
is being shown. The walls a ceiling
around us enclose us into a single group. Our capital consists of the pens,
books, paper and clothing that we had purchased to take part in the learning
process.
ECONOMY
Dr. Phil Bartle (Professor)
is out main economic structure. The knowledge that we gain here comes at
a price, both monetary and by time allotted to the program. As the old
saying goes, "Time is money". We rely on one another as a learning tool
as well.
POLITICAL
In our class, there is a
main authority figure in which the flow of the
class is conducted from. We as
students listen to instructions and follow
tasks delegated by the professor
(Dr. Phil). While in our sub groups, we as
individuals come together to form
one decision as a group. While we are not
in our groups, we make our own
decisions.
INSTITUTIONAL
We as students use each other
as a means to a consensus. We take out individual perspectives and openly
discuss them until a main common theme is prevalent. Our entire class is
our main for of structure, with branches off into our totemic groups. The
relationships within the totemic groups are generally stronger then outside
of our group.
VALUES
We are in this class because
we have a need for higher learning. Each person has their own specific
ideas and values pertaining to why they are here. the most common reason
is to gain knowledge and better ourselves as a person.
WORLDVIEW
the religion within out group
is varied, not seeming to be an issue to focus on. It does not play a large
roll in our society as a group. The beliefs within the group are varied
as well, but most seem to be focused on bettering ourselves to better society
itself.
Thank you,
Jamie G

Hey dr. Phil,
Here the Drangonfly's
answers to the worksheet you gave us on Wednesday the 26th:
Location:
Fischer building, upstairs, room #238 at Camosun College, Landsdowne Campus.
It is a learning environment which is also very lively and social, interactive,
voluntary and democrated. The ecology of the class is made up of human
beings, many different types of characteristics.
Demography
Population: this is changing day to day. Today there are are 23 students,
1 teacher and one translator. Our group stated off with 7 people, and now
we have 6. We each carry different perspectives, opinions, and we vary
in age. The class is very spacious and relaxed.
Technology:
our tools consist of paper, pens, binders, chalkboard, sink, projector,
text books, lights. The capital we believe is the teacher and the text
books in which we read. Our clothing varies, some dress casual and other
more conservative. Overal we carry the North American style. The language
of the class is english, sign language and body language (which is spoken
or acted anyways)
Economy-
Scarce, limited funds because we are students. Our services are cars that
we drive to get to class, buses, cabs, bikes or any other relative means
along those lines. The distiribution is knowledge that the teacher passes
on the the studentws, then we carry it, and may or may not distribute it
to others.
Political
Power: The teacher telling us what to do, which would also be classified
as authority. Influence and decisions are made by each individual in the
class. THey have the decision of coming and going, along with the teacher
and translator. We may be influences from each others ideas, the skilss
we are learning from the teacher or what we are teaching ourselves by being
part of the class.
week for aproximately an hour and
twenty minutes. Relationships are always buliding, maybe turning into friendships,
maybe turning into enemies??
Values-
Values of the class are what each person allows it to mean to them individually.
If our group all has carries the ambition to want to do well in the course,
then our values are obvious and we are going to strive for the same goal.
We can vlaue from opening our minds to hear others, learn a new perspective,
and dilute sterotypes in order to prevail each class.
Worldview-
we are recieving new information, our minds could be changing, forming
into a new or warped mindset, we absorb new perspectives each class and
learning to accept each other. I dont think that we had the problem of
anyone voicing their own beliefs and denying others of theirs, so thats
a positive step to learning acceptance.
