I think my ideas and expectations I had of this course prior to the start were very accurate. I predicted that I would learn about different cultures around the world and how they compare or contrast from each other. I have realized that America is isolated in their own way when it comes to culture and we learned in assignment two. This assignment was to look at thirteen different values and how other cultures relate to American values.
I believe that if I took this course again the only thing I would change is how I managed my time. This course has many assignments that tend to all be due on the same day which is very bad for me as I tend to procrastinate. With this being said though from the beginning to end of the semester I believed I have gotten better spacing my assignments out over the week. The best skill that I have learned from this course that I can utilize in my professional life is how to relate and understand other cultures. This is important because I never want to be insensitive to anyone’s beliefs or even offend someone.
