It was very interesting to learn about Nigerian culture as I didn’t know much about it at all

I've found I'm much more open to exploring many different cultures

Timing

2024-03-26 11:32:16 UTC

It was tricky to find times when everyone was free to meet and make the videos but we managed to make it work

2024-03-26 11:32:22 UTC

It was really interesting learning different cultures, names and thoughts put behind the naming and the conventions in different cultures.

What I learnt about the cultures of other countries:

2024-03-26 11:32:34 UTC

I learnt new things about the culture of India and Britain (UK). I got to know that one of the best British dish is fish and chips.

Working and blending with different people

2024-03-26 11:32:46 UTC

Talking about myself so much

2024-03-26 11:32:47 UTC

I am not used to having to talk about myself so much and about my culture I learnt some things about my own culture whilst doing this

I can communicate with other people with diverse experiences. This will help me to be a better team player and be a proper representative of diversity, inclusion and equality groups.

2024-03-26 11:32:59 UTC

The first time, I learnt about Nigeria and their cultures. I thought that it was in the South Africa country. I got to know that Nigeria is in North Africa. There are many states and many cultures.

2024-03-26 11:33:15 UTC

Be open

2024-03-26 11:33:22 UTC

I feel like I’d be more open when working with people from different backgrounds and may even have a better understanding of their culture and customs

I challenged myself to adopt a more open-minded and inclusive perspective

2024-03-26 11:33:30 UTC

Cultural Awareness

Diversity

2024-03-26 11:33:50 UTC

I learnt about the diversity in culture and learning to see things from another persons perspective. Also the richness in the uniqueness of different cultures.

I will definitely want to explore some places in the world India for instance😁

2024-03-26 11:33:53 UTC

The only challenge was the schedule of our team mates, and the difference in the timetable but we were able to work together as a team and enjoy the process.

2024-03-26 11:33:54 UTC

Learning about Cultures

2024-03-26 11:33:54 UTC

Basically, everybody's culture is quite unique, this made it possible to appreciate different values of individuals and assigned good personality to people.

2024-03-26 11:34:05 UTC

I am a bit of shy or not talkative person so talking with everyone and in groups felt challenging.

2024-03-26 11:34:38 UTC

The interesting culture shock working with a Chinese team member. I find it interesting the value of promoting prosperity in everything which was revealed even in video composition. Prosperity first, anything else follows. In his words; “Without prosperity, good surplus, security, there is no place for other cultural activities”. “This lesson in every East Asians( China, Vietnam, Japan, Korea) must learn from childhood”.

Now I have gained the confidence to talk with any people without any hesitation.

2024-03-26 11:34:46 UTC

The experience has deepened my understanding of cultural diversity and equipped me with essential intercultural skills

2024-03-26 11:34:46 UTC

2024-03-26 11:34:55 UTC

I am now feeling much better to talk with people so it may help in future.

I found challenging timing in particular. A bit difficult sometimes having to schedule meetings with colleagues at my free times

2024-03-26 11:35:03 UTC

To see people beyond their color, faces and language.

we connected on Zoom to record the task 2 (talking about each others culture), we had a really nice chat sharing each others customs, celebrations when we finished recording we saw that the recording didn't got the audio, then we met personally to record the video and it was personally challenge to have the natural conversation 2nd time.

My social skills have improved

2024-03-26 11:35:24 UTC

What I found Challenging:

2024-03-26 11:35:41 UTC

I found it a little difficult understanding the different religions in india because of their close belief systems and practices.

2024-03-26 11:35:54 UTC

This experience can help me with communication at my work place , can help in interviews etc.

How culture determine our view of the world

2024-03-26 11:36:54 UTC

The daily routine and customs can rewire our brain manifesting on how we face the problems, workplace arrangement, labour force allocation. These are about invisible cultre.

Regard to visible culture, we can see them on cuisine, performance art, architecture.

For example: as an individual who share influences from China nad Vietnam, I saw the differenece from how I design my country advert ( detailed explanation) and everybody else(focus on visualized and brief series of pictures)

Different Belief

2024-03-26 11:37:07 UTC

Everybody belief is different, so we need to be careful before forming assumptions about people.
