Interpretive, Interpersonal, and Presentational Modes of Communication

Unit-11-project

Instructions

Exploring Culture

This assignment helped me gain an understanding of both Hispanic and American clothing culture in new ways. I got to learn not just the words, but how people interact and feel about them.

Engaging in Communities

This is important because it helps me to understand not just Hispanic culture but also to appreciate as well. This kind of learning leads to a better understanding of the world at large.

Interpersonal Communication

TalkAbroad was great for multiple reasons. It not only gave me the chance to learn about how other people view their own culture, but also hear a native speaker speak their language. Hearing how they spoke made me want to get better at learning and how to pronounce my Spanish better so that I could better communicate with them.

Presentational Speaking

The best example of presentational speaking was when we recorded our text misunderstanding video. In it both me and my partner had to not only speak Spanish the entire time, but also had to resolve the problem we were having in the fake scenario. It was a fun challenge due to the fact that we had to present this to the class to have a full demonstration of our speaking abilities.

Presentational Writing

The outfit design project is a good example because it showed off not only our knowledge of the vocab, but also of the unit itself. This first project laid the groundwork for how the other projects would be and how we would have to show off what we learned in class and our growth as Spanish speakers.

Interpretive Listening

The various stories and activities in LingroHub really helped develop my listening skills. Having to listen to how the prompt was talking and then trying to figure out the best answer from there was great in training how to really list to how Spanish sounds.

Interpretive Reading

The biggest way I developed my interpretative reading was through the LingroHub stories. The story of Bartolome Arrazola is a great example because it helped us understand how to talk about things in the past and learn about the irregular verbs in the unit.
