My ICC self-assessment

Hi everybody!
This is the last post of our English course!
Last week we had to answer some questions about our ICC competences, how these developed through the last semester thanks to the Exchange with Dickinson students and how these practically took place, providing examples of them. Through the Exchange my peers and I had the possibility to really keep the contact with the culture whose language we are still studying. Sarah's created for us personal wiki pages on which we answered the questions on ICC.

Summarizing the ICC questionaire contents, I had a great experience throughout the Exchange with Dickinson students. In general we spent a good time together, I didn't have any problems at all with Artem - the America/Ukrainian peer, my group worked good together and we've achieved in building a good relation among us.

I learned a lot from this experience upon American culture. I learnt how students live there, how the system surrounding them works - even though in general -. Through the work we made in class, I had the possibility to focus on some aspects: immigration, discrimination, political system, politicians and elections. With the wiki project I really get informed on how death penalty works in US. However, the thing I appreciated the most is that I used English to work with other people, I had to use it to overcome problems or misunderstandings, I used it to cope with the different situation took place during these last months. At the end of all my university career, finally, we had the honour and used English porperly, to comunicate with native speakers outside our class!

What's more I've been learning vocabulary, expressions, and improved my accent. Here you can find the answers to my ICC.

Bye,

Zara
