FINAL BLOG --INTRODUCE MY HOMELAND --CHINA

This is my final blog ,i hope you can know more about China .

China,It stands in Asia and lies on the west coast of the ocean. China covers 9,600,000square kilometers. People of about 1.3billion live and work together on the land.56 nations make up the whole population of China.

As you know, China has a long history of 5000 years, which turns out rich culture and special style. It’s said that every corner of Chinese ancient history was filled with varieties of prominent art works. All this influences people here by giving them a lot of feelings, experiences, images and ideas about life. But China also had a troubled past since 1840. She saw a lot: Xinghai Revolution against feudal dynasty in 1911,the anti—Japanese war during 1937—1945, the civil war broken out in 1946.Most big events brought pains, poverty to Chinese people, but they never gave in . Oppositely, people learnt not to weep when faced the hardship. They were taught to be strong enough to solve each problem. It’s the troubled time that create the valuable character for Chinese people. Finally they were succeed in rebuilding and developing the motherland.        

China was founded as an independent country named People’s Republic of China in 1949 .  After that, it began to its door to the world and built bridges of friendship with many other countries. Since then, China set its steps of fast development on all the sides, especially in the field of science and technology. We can say that new Chinese history is filled with great achievements. To exploring space, the CSA has developed the highly successful Long March rocket series. At present the scientists are preparing for the nation’s first manned space flight flying to the moon. In the field of genetic research, China also plays an important role. In 2000,our scientists have announced that they completed the their part of the international human genome project.

Up to now, China has all the way received more and more attentions from the whole world. She is showing its great changes to the world and becomes active on the big stage of the world. Surely she’ll have a better future.

Barriers I had when i just came America

Culture is different between American and Asian. As a intenational here ,i faced a lot problem.Like i have struggled with lots of communication problems.Our vallues and perceptions always judge different behaviors as wrong.

For example ,once my Vietmanese classmates came to my home and  they just walked into my kitchen and opened the refrigerator to check what insider was,and later started ti check cabinets.To me,this is very rude.I never do like this.I still have no idea why they did this.But one of my friends told me that is action happends normally in Vitnam because their parents told them to do if they visit other's house.They check your kitchen in order to know whether you cook or not and know your life style.Most importantly cooing every meal is a basic necessity for Vietmanese daily life.

Moreover i have high anxiety whenever i have a conversation with Americans.I do not know how i should react to American customs or attitudes.Ofentimes i feel helpless, hopeless and tired after analyzing messages for a whole day.I often cannot keep the conversation going and I just pretend that I understand and give smiles instead.

After one year study ,i feel much better ,less and less barriers in my  daily life.

American education V.S. Asian education

Have you ever heard a lot Americans go to China Japan or other Asian countries to study recently? Although as an international student here, I still do not know does American education is far away than other countries’. I am a person who educated in Asian countries and China but I still do not which is better than the other. Like the things in the world, it is hard to say which one is definitely white or black because a lot of is none of them which is grey. A lot people consider that American education is far away better than others because  american education allow students free to think and provide students opportunities to develop their creativity .

Last semester i read a article ,said a author who was born and educated in Indonesia he had to memorize all the major cities in the world but his son who grew up in American at the same age already knew use creativity to draw a map from his house to school. He also said when he was eighteen year old, he had to memorize Hamlet’s “To be or not to be” clearly but his son was allowed to write a creative love letter to Juliet. It is true Asian education focus more about the memorzing.

But does it necessary? Definitely!!!

When I was in China, the teacher required us to recite the formula of the mathematics. At that time, I really did not know the reason and it was unwilling for me to do that. I thought it is not necessary to do that because we can look up them in the textbook. Since I came to American, I found I have a huge advantage of memorizing. When I took the mathematics classes here, I realized that I can calculate the result much faster than my classmates who grow up by the American education. Once when American students use the book to find the formula and then use the calculator to count the results of the second part of test sheet, I already finish the whole test. At that time because of the huge amount of the test questions, a lot American could not finish all of them on time, some of them because the time was so limited ,they failed that test. But it is piece of cake for me to do that because I already memorized all of them when I was in China. Do you still think memorizing is not important and spend time to memorize is not worth?

It is hard to say which countries education is better.Each of them has advantage and disandvantage.What we should do to learn the advantage and improve our own disadvantage.

Our Final ---the POP SHOW

When the other classes have final coming next week .Our Asian American class already finish our final two week ago and we really did a great job in our final--the POP SHOW, I even can not believe we already made it .

Suprised ,we did a great job on the show even the time is limited and something did not do as well as we expect which is not that perfect.But what we should know is nothing is perfect in the world and the main point is everyone in the class already try our best.

Be honest before the show I really worried I really lose confidence about the show because the time is so limited(since we knew the what should we do on the Pop show,only have two weeks left)and one week before the final is the Thanksgiving break, everyone had their own vacation , our group although tried to find a time when everyone can make it to come together to practice,but it was impossible to do that. Had no choise ,the only thing we can do was we share our idea in the facebook and everyone practiced at home by ourselves. I  am a person who gona act as a bad driver and i borrow a cover of steering wheel from my friend and try to use that to show that i am a bad driver and i am a person who drive on the road gona be dangerous . Actually this was my first time to do the show in American, I kind of scare if i did not do well gona infulence our group. Then i asked some of friends ,and perform to them ,after i got several feedback ,i already know how to do it well.

From this Pop show ,i learned a lot. Nothing is impossible. It is similar like when we face some difficulty problem ,now matter how difficulty it is you can not give up at the first time.What you should do is you should believe nothing is impossible.If you can try your best ,definitly you can make it at the end.

Pop show ending means our Asian American class will ending soon. Overall this is the first class i never took before in my life and this is a class let me know how important groupwork is. At the begining of the semester i am not used to this class which is totally different from other class . Pro Irene did not require too much ,she give a lot freedom to students and make students become more creativity.This is the class will never happen in China. When i was in China ,i agree with others higher standards can makes education better.So school make the test much more harder ,and student including me just focus on stuffing knowlede to our mind in order to get as high grade as we can .Since i came to American ,i feel the education like that already lost the meaning of the true education.Students should have more freedom and more creativity.

Thanks Pro Irene ,thanks T.A ,thanks all the classmates ,i really learn a lot in the class and i really enjoy it .
