Welcome to the SBS Cultural Atlas

Has SBS got it right? Check out your own culture or that of your class mates.  

The Cultural Atlas is an educational resource providing comprehensive information on the cultural background of Australia's migrant populations. The aim is to improve social cohesion and promote inclusion in an increasingly culturally diverse society.

We are not all the same, a mannerism is courteous on one culture but rude in other, understanding and awareness helps.

Tune into Lego Masters for a dose of 'real time' creativity, teamwork,

time management and working under pressure. 

We don't often suggest watching reality TV, but we are making an exception. You can watch because you love Lego, or because there is much you can learn from watching people work together to create and meet an external goal (Channel 9)

Heard of right brain left brain? This little video might help explain the concept
