Exploring Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Los patos t\u00edpicos de Argentina es Asado, Locro, Empanadas, y Dulce de leche. Las bebidas t\u00edpicos de Argentina es Vino patero, Mate, y Fernet. Festival Nacional de la Mandarina es una ocasi\u00f3n en Argentina celebrar las mandarina granjero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the textbook Lingro Learning the section Exploraci\u00f3n cultural on unit 8 goes over different Hispanic countries getting brief information from many people asking about the culture behind food. I think it is effective by seeing many different points of views when it comes to learning about the Hispanic cultures around the world and being asked to do further research to further develop my knowledge when it comes to other cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being able to search and look up information about Hispanic culture bettered my values and attitudes because I was able to get an insight to what goes on and how they live their life. I don’t believe that it challenged my worldview, nor any of my other views on other cultures, I am a non bias person when it comes to others cultures, and I am often intrigued on what other cultures do differently, as it truly makes everyone different and stand out rather than everyone being the same. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Engaging in Communities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Engaging in communities is important because it gives a sense of connection with everyone, so no one feels left out. Engagement also allows growth on ones attitude and knowledge by understanding the people around them. With the world getting more packed and more people are being born people are getting pushed closer and closer together so people are bound to have to engage with other communities, immediate to global communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the recent semester engaged with a Hispanic lady through a TalkAbroad assignment that will be reviewed under Interpersonal Communication<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpersonal Communication<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The TalkAbroad Conversation between me and my partner went well in my opinion, with there being a language barrier between us I was able to learn more about them during the conversation and understand what they were talking about to a degree. Outside of the TalkAbroad there was a interview with my professor in Spanish, although I did not do as well it was still a learning opportunity for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through each assignment was planned I had not had any spontaneous communication activities, aside from hearing a conversation in Spanish by other people there has not been any where I was personally involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentational Speaking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This semester did not have any presentational speaking activities that I can think of unlike in the previous semester where I had a few activities with presentational speaking. However the one activity that was the closest to a presentational speaking activity was talking about food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The assignment was on making a recipe for a selected dish, it found it a challenge when making sure to conjugate the words correctly to make them commands. I believe I overcame this challenge by making sure that I had not messed anything up and checking the proper conjugations for each word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentational Writing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In an assignment I had to write about health and make a flyer to help spread awareness about a heath issue. I had grown and learned a lot from this assignment as I used a helpful tactic of searching the internet in Spanish rather than English to get better responses to what I was looking for. I grew from this because without that I wouldn’t have been able to find the information as easy. I could have been better on the writing portion and working better with preparing however I believe that I had done well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpretive Listening<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As not something I had done related to class work, but listening to music made by Hispanic communities has helped me get a feel for how the language is, what it sounds like to help me pronounce words and sentences better in Spanish by giving me insight on how the Spanish language is supposed to sound rather than guessing. I felt like I have grown listening to the music some, although I do not fully understand what is being said, there are a few times where I can pick up on a few words that I can make sense of which I could not have before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
