Please pay attention to the instruction. My Spanish speaking country/region that I chose is Cuba.
Objective: To explore cultural understanding and comparative skills.
Country/Territory Selection Requirement
Once students choose a country or territory for Mini-Task 1, they must continue with that selection for all subsequent mini-tasks and the final project. Changing the choice after Mini-Task 1 is not allowed and will result in penalties during the final project evaluation. Students should carefully select their country or territory at the start of the semester and ensure consistency throughout the course to maintain continuity and depth in their work.
A. English Component
Write a short reflection (100-150 words) on a specific cultural practice/event/celebration from your chosen country/region, discussing why it caught your interest. Communicate with your classmates in the first Participation Discussion Board Post about what you plan to cover in your project to ensure that content is not repeated. This reflection helps in personalizing the learning experience. Make sure to reflect on this practice/event/celebration and provide your genuine, original perspective on it.
B. Spanish Component????
Record a 2–3-minute video in Spanish describing the cultural practice and briefly comparing it to a similar event in the US. This task encourages students to delve into cultural nuances and practice expressing comparisons in Spanish. Remember that you are still a beginner/intermediate Spanish-speaker, so errors are expected. The objective is to create a video with informal, spontaneous, original speech in Spanish, so you should not be overly concerned with accuracy! These videos are to help you build comfort with expressing your thoughts and feelings in Spanish, so be creative, be original, and be yourself. Do NOT create/read from a script for this assignment.
