Reflection #8
Class
Overall
The first day of class I remember doing the activity of
meeting our classmates by walking around the classroom and asking them
questions to try to fill our worksheets in. The checklist included many
different activities or descriptive words which first started the bond and
communication. First starting off the class with a communication showed us that
we are able to create a bond with our classmates and not make judgements or
assumptions about them.
There were many different activities and movies we
watched in class. One of my favorite movies that we watched besides Living on
One Dollar was Promises. The movie was very inspirational as well as
educational. We were able to see the different sides of the Israel and Jew
children and get their opinion of how they feel about the situation they are
in. The movie gave us two different perspectives instead of one so people would
not make judgements instead of hearing each other’s stories and backgrounds.
This is also another reason why I enjoyed the class which is hearing our classmate’s
stories about their study abroad stores as well being international students.
The class was great because not only did we learn about
communication and how to become better listeners and interactors but also because
we were able to share our own background stories and experiences.
