Group 1: Education now and in the future


Group 1 presented about education in the U.S, and did a fantastic job, I learned a lot. There are multiple issues with the education system in the United States, they talked about security issues, racism and finances. The cost of college education has gone up by 15% in the past 10 years. Money is a big part in attending college, people can get accepted to their dream school but may not go because it's too expensive and have no way of paying it off and scholarships may not cover it all. Covid-19 has changed the future of education, some people are adapting to the online, but others want to return face to face. Once Covid-19 is over people may want to stay online.

Group 2: Covid-19 and Health Care

Group 2 presented about Covid-19, they presented a lot of amazing facts and statistics that helped me understand what the pandemic is really like. According to the presentation, the pandemic caused the largest global recession in history, causing worldwide lockdown. Covid-19 started as a 2 week break, everyone was excited for it but it trickled down and started cancelling sports, people started losing jobs, missing rent payments, supermarkets were running out of supplies. A year later, we're all adjusted, a vaccine is being rolled out, and the government is doing everything they can to slow down the spread of this virus. 

Group 3: Racism 

Group 3 talked about racism, they demonstrated knowledge of the past and present issues of racism. The history of racism is very interesting. Racism has been prevalent for hundreds and thousands of years. Communities have been fighting to stop this for once and for all. Black Lives Matter movement Even though racism is a matter that may take a couple more decades to fix, education is the first step to fixing this issue.

                                                             Chapter 3  As we learn about chapter 3, we learn about "Culture and Communication" were we learn about the way of life of others and what they considered right and wrong another thing we learn is Co-Cultures which "Communication is also a mechanism through which culture is modified." As we learn about Dominant Cultures in chapter 3 we see that in different continents this kind of cultures is observed. The group in chapter 3 are good presenters, I liked how good they read and thought the way they were going to present and the videos they used to explain the presentation better were great.                                                           Chapter 9 Communication in Groups  In chapter 9 we learn about different ways to do communication in a group or a family, it is consider a group when there are 3 to 20 people.

 Chapter 3: Intercultural Communication was an interesting chapter presented by Group 1, who did an amazing job. Intercultural Communication was about the definition of culture, all the different cultures that exists and how we can communicate with a person from a different culture. This chapter also teach us important aspects about communication, the seven dimensions in which cultures differ and strategies that we can use in order to communicate effectively. When we learn about a person from a different culture we expand our knowledge and our perspective to things and life. Furthermore, we learn that a person can be bicultural, many people in America culture may identify with one or more cultures. Today cultures are also formed by shared believes and values like race, ethnicity, sex and gender.   Chapter 9: Communicating in groups teach us about the different types of groups we can form since social groups and support groups to service groups and family. Group 2 did a great presentati
