Delivery of culturally appropriate health care in our pluralistic society demands that practitioners develop special attitudes, knowledge, and skills. Experimental learning is a powerful methodology for addressing the affective, as well as the cognitive, domain of learning. The exploration of personal values is an essential first step in developing cultural awareness in order to move learners beyond ethnocentrism through awareness, understanding, acceptance, and appreciation of other cultures if learners are to truly adopt a multicultural approach to their professional practice. The nursing curriculum at McMaster University School of Nursing is based on the principles of adult education and self-directed learning. A series of guided experiences have been undertaken with a variety of health sciences learners, both students and faculty members, to foster an increased appreciation of (their) own values preliminary to embarking on knowledge and skill acquisition for transcultural health care.
在我们这个多元社会中，提供符合文化背景的医疗保健要求从业者培养特殊的态度、知识和技能。体验式学习是一种强大的方法，可用于解决学习中的情感领域和认知领域问题。探索个人价值观是培养文化意识的关键第一步，这样才能使学习者超越民族中心主义，通过认识、理解、接受和欣赏其他文化，真正在其专业实践中采用多元文化方法。麦克马斯特大学护理学院的护理课程基于成人教育和自主学习的原则。已经与各类健康科学学习者（包括学生和教职员工）开展了一系列有指导的体验活动，以促进他们在开始获取跨文化医疗保健的知识和技能之前，增强对自身价值观的认识。
