Exploring Culture
In this course I was able to explore Spanish cultures by viewing the videos and reading about the way people in Spanish countries live. I enjoyed the video we watching regarding El ClasÃco. It helped me learn about how big the people of Spain go for the teams they love.
Engaging in Communities
It is important to engage within your community because it is valuable to talk to your neighbors to find out ways you can both benefit your community.
It is important to engage with the global community to get to know people from all over the world and learn their ways of life.
This course has helped me engage in with my global community by learning about how life in Spanish countries are.
Interpersonal Communication
My favorite interpersonal communication that I did in Spanish101 was the discussion board posts on BlackBoard. The posts required us to think about Spanish concepts and connect them to our personal lives. It usually required the watching of a film.
Each of those activities have helped grow by being able to have a different way to learn the content. I was able to apply Spanish and use my knowledge to complete the assignment. I found the talkabroad difficult because it was hard to find a time where both me and my partner were available to talk. I overcame this by being as flexible with my time as possible. I believe that I excelled when writing my discussion board posts because I really enjoyed doing them.
Presentational Writing
Due to Covid-19 and class being online I believe that it would have been hard to do this section of the portfolio. As well as I can remember we did not complete any compositions, pamphlets, blogs, flyers, stories or articles.
