society or group. To say that two people belong to the same culture is to say that they interpret the world in roughly the same ways and can express themselves, their thoughts, and feelings about the world, in ways which would be understood by each other. Thus, culture depends on its participants interpreting meaningfully what is happening around them, and “making sense” of the world, in broadly similar ways. (p.2)7For Hall, this communal sense making project is deeply contextualized, and has the “tendency to take onthe intellectual coloration of the place where it is operating.” (p.24)8 He characterizes culture asindivisible from power and underlines the “historic

For example, Raphael at Beta described: My current teacher for the science stuff, he has a lot of hands-on lessons and he thoroughly explains everything and makes sure that we get it. And the examples that he uses are about everyday things. And then as the lesson goes on, it gets more advanced. And that makes it easier to digest and understand what's happening and how this translates to the real world.Additionally, Zara from Zeta reported: “I do like doing the stuff that was happening in my class,all the investigations, DNA stuff...
