First of all, since we start this class I didn't even realize what is it going to be about at all. After this chapter, I have concious of what we have learned, and what is the point of this course. How do i learn? I don't like to learn from book, to read just definitions and remember them. I like this way, what we have in this class, bu discussion, we have discussions at classroom, and when You explain just once some definition I already can remember this. My "aha" moment was about "salad bowl" I didn't have an idea what does it have common, but now it makes a huge sense in culture. One of my things that I have learned is that America is the biggest country of different nations,races,religions, and cultures..I learned that many cultures were forced to get americanized, but there are still some cultures that keep their traditions, that's why Chicago is for example is divided into neighborhoods,for instance like the Ukrainian village, or Wicker park.. bunch of Irish people used to live there now there is bunch of beaners,as well we can compare it to the melting pot.
