FEEDBACK OF THE COURSE

Now the semester is almost done,,, and in few days we are going to be in VACATION!! but before it, is important to make some feedback about the things made during the course of Organizations and Culture, to me this course was really interesting because I love all the things related with different cultures, customs, countries, and how things of the past influence the present and future of generations.

During the semester We made interesting activities that helped as to understand better the different topics related with the course. The blog was one of my favorite, because it is an interactive tool, that help us to express different opinions, and made us analyze some topics deeper and it was a tool to communicate opinions and points of view with classmates. Other interesting activities were the presentations of the countries, with that activity we made research of a country and because the time to present was to long, all the material to present had to be well prepared and the topics to present required a lot of investigation to be well presented. With the expositions of the other groups We learned things We did not know, I specially like the presentation of Korea, because the classmates were from there and they could give us an idea of culture and customs, and the presentation of Antti, because the way he present topics is active and shows knowledge of the topic presented.

One thing a did not like a lot were the readings, not all of them!! only some of them that were really long, and with some things not interesting completely, and read them was sometimes difficult.

This course was very interesting to me...and a lot of things were learned!!!
