Intellectual Studies ReflectionCulture has a significant influence on our opinions, expectations, devotions, morals, fears, and concerns which made it a strong part of our lives. Therefore, understanding of other individuals’ culture help us while interacting or building a relationship with them. The goal of “intellectual studies” course is to improve intercultural communication skills of learners by focusing on different communication strategies used by people from different cultural backgrounds.In this course, I learned about the matter relating to intercultural conflict, perspectives, cultural learners, acculturation, assimilation, cultural shock, identity, Hofstede 6 dimensions, stereotype, bias, cultural critics and high/low context cultures. Ms. Lamba Payab class has taught me many great things. In the class, I have learned how to analyze and think correctly and effectively. Now I accept and understand new things because I have a new perspective. During the course, I have learned the way to take better decisions inlife that opens new opportunities for me. Learning and understanding new culture open the eyes of many people. Now, in case I have a conflict with another person from a different culture than me, I know how to appropriately deal with the issues from what I have learned inthe course regarding multiple conflicts, and how to understand and analyze them (which is a bit difficult).I have learned about my identity and the identity of other individuals through the interactions I have with peers, family, media, corporations, institutions and other connection I have in my everyday life. Knowing and understanding my identity means respecting my and other’s passions and fears, strengths and weaknesses, tolerances and limitations, opinions and feelings, preferences and hates, and wishes and ideas. During the course, I learned about my perspective and changing it to include other’s as well which assist me in solving problems and thinking differently. For example, in next group project, I will listen and understand the perspective of other team members and include them in the project because they may see things differently than me and it may provide a solution to the problem. During the course, I was interested in Culture learners and cultural critic topic. The lessons I have learned in the class will help me throughout my life and my workplace when I interact
