Answer 1 - Collective environment
Explanation
- It promotes human to human contact.
- Reduces errors and promotes understanding.
- Reduces stress because work gets divided and you always have
someone to interact with.
- You always have a colleague to approach if you finding
something difficult to understand instead of approaching a teacher
( who may not be approachable always)
- Helps you to understand newer cultures and sensitizes you
towards them
Answer 2:
- Experience has been good.
- I have had the opportunity of working with people who spoke a
different language and had their own different culture.
- It made me realize that the basic aspiration ( like need to
succeed in life) and nature of people are the same across
cultures.
- We aren't that different after all.
- It helped me understand their culture and their language.
- I also understood things that they enjoy the most. Example: the
place where I come from football is not that popular but it was
very popular in the region my colleagues hailed from.
- It also allowed me to share my cultural beliefs with them
- Some of them even learn the language of my region.
Answer 3
- Yes I have made an effort to learn about their culture.
- I have used the internet to study the culture and history of my
colleagues.
- I have demonstrated my attempts at learning their culture by
asking them questions and doubts.
- We have even celebrated few festivals which are not native to
my region but are common in the region my colleagues hail
from.
