Personal reflection #5

What did I Learn in this Course?

In this course I learned new different vocabulary words like stereotyping, bias, multiculturalism, salad bowl and mainly about  cultures in different countries. I have learned that i should treat all people form any culture the same so that I don't make them feel that I am superior  to them but to treat them equally. I have learned about how some countries are culturally diverse, you will find cultures trying to communicate with other cultures and that you will find in it so many racist problems and fights. I learned that culture diversity teaches us not to stereotype people you deal with in your life. Finally, the last thing I learned was about gap year, which is a year that some people take between graduating from high school and attending university to see different cultures.
