Intercultural competency
The artefact assignment aligns with the rubric of appropriate BLO because it gave me the opportunity to share my personal experience with my classmates. It allowed me to uncover meaningful events and moments and how it contributes to the process of group cohesion. The assignment provided me with the opportunity to share my findings of Chinese culture with the fellow.
The artefacts of intellectual competence allowed me to learn the values, beliefs and customs of the Chinese culture. The coursework allowed me to deal with the people of different cultures inappropriate manner. I learned that the group identifies and norms of an individual impact his views and interaction with others. I learned about different artefacts of Chinese culture such as its economy, people, business and ambitions.
The course allowed me to attain an intercultural identity as I opened to other cultural views. I learned about different cultural approaches such as collectivism, classes of communications, humility vs. self-promotion, economics vs. relationships and personal vs. professional life. My knowledge of collectivism allowed me to learn the reason behind the strong emphasis of Chinese on family values. The artefacts allowed me to realize that the Chinese are sensitive.
I plan to use my learning in future for working in a culturally diverse environment. I would use my personal experience in handling conflicting situations that arise due to cultural differences CITATION Kei16 \l 1033 (Belly, 2016). My learning on collectivism will allow me to understand the reasons behind Chinese values and I would manage to understand them.
In future, I would use my knowledge for working in a culturally diverse environment. For example, in a situation where I have to work with a Chinese colleague, I would manage to handle his sensitivity. If he gets annoyed I would understand that its due to cultural influence. Similarly, I would respect his values for maintaining a good work environment.
