Description of Work/Assignment: For this project we were to pick a spanish speaking country and hypothetically immerse ourselves in their country. We were to pick a foreign exchange program and give all of the details of it. For the presentation aspect of this project, we were to present fully in spanish.
Which 21st Century Skill do you feel this assignment addresses, and why?: I feel global awareness would fit best with this assignment due to this project being more so related onto the topic of culture and another country, which brings up the global aspect of a different culture and country. For the awareness aspect, we were to choose a foreign exchange program, as I mentioned above, and for my project, my partner and I chose to present on a program that helps with the cleanup of the more recent hurricane in Puerto Rico and bringing awareness to the unfortunate situation.
What are you most proud of from this assignment, and why?: I am most proud of the pronunciation of the spanish words I said during the presentation.
How did you develop and/or improve upon your 21st Century Skill with this assignment?: I developed, and or improved on this 21st century skill with this assignment by being more aware of what happens globally, and to others around the world.
What was most difficult about completing this task?: The most difficult part of completing this project was finding a foreign exchange program that we were interested in. Presenting in spanish was also a pretty difficult part in making sure the words were correctly in order in the sentences and pronounced decent enough. Another difficult part of this project was speaking in spanish loud enough for the class to hear.
How could you improve this work? If you could start over, what would you do differently?: If I could start over, I could improve this project in the way I presented. I could've looked up at the audience more while presenting. I also would carve out more time to get the project done. How does this relate to what you have learned in the past?How can you apply this to future learning?: This relates to what i have learned in the past about spanish and its phrasing because for this project we were tasked with giving the presentation in full spanish. I can apply this to my future learning in other projects that require full spanish, and it'll better help my spanish speaking for the future if I ever need to have a conversation in spanish.
