I wanted to go beyond our poor village, to travel more than the 3-5 kilometers I walked barefoot as a little boy, to see what the big, smoking factory towers nearby were really like, to know more about the rest of China
16、 and the outside world. Luckily for me and my generation of only-children, Chinas Open Door Policy started bringing new information and new opportunities by the 90s.The only way to go beyond that backward village was to achieve at school. So I gave all my energy and attention to studying to avoid ha

34、4. 文化认同危机问题 5. 研究方法应与世界学术研究界兼容The Summary of Writing ProcessThe Summary of Writing ProcessOur group was built on Nov. 1 after the class of Introduction to IC. Then we started to think about the outline of our research. On Nov. 8 we got together to exchange each ones proposals on the future topic. Al
35、though we are of different background, we share the same interest in cross-culture study. Considering there might be limited source in SISU library, we decided to go to other universities and bookstores to get books in this field. The division was as follows: Qiushan searching in SISU library, Cheng
36、 donghui in Fudan library, Wang xiaoling in Tongji library and He muchen in the nearby bookstores. On Nov. 14, we brought the books and articles we have found together and then selected the best 20 which are most fit for our topic. After that, we began to write annotated summaries individually, keep
37、ing contact with each other via e-mail, MSN and SMS to get the latest progress of others. Having exchanged what we discovered and experienced, Qiushan made her contribution to the first part, introduction to communication and much of the bibliography; Cheng donghui wrote the second part, mass commun
38、ication and IC, and this summary; Wang xiaoling worked on international communication and IC; He muchun reviewed the history and status of the influence of IC on mass communication in China. Finally the four of us collected the bibliography and compiled all these six parts in a consistent style.This
39、 group work has exposed us further by applying IC principles and ideas. We have known about some famous scholars and theories in this field through reading all the materials. During this group work, all of us found that we became more experienced in locating the sources, analyzing them, dividing the
40、 job and writing the paper. Before this project, we were not so familiar with each other due to living in different dormitory buildings and having different courses. Now we are good friends for this teamwork has enhanced the communication among us.Frustration Experienced When the instructor assigned
41、 us the writing task, helping him to collect some data, although we at that moment did not know much about the field, joyously we started out. As the work proceeded we began to feel puzzled and almost lost. The relevant information we could find was so little. After having finished reading the books
42、 offered by the instructor, we searched the SISU library, Fudan library, Tongji library, and bookstores at several places. To our relief, we at last located some useful information. The biggest problem then was the chaos in the concepts of the field. Since the field is quite new, few studies have be
43、en conducted, and theres no established classification of concepts, let alone systematic theories. Group members have different opinions about the classification of concepts, resulting in redrafting the outline several times. All these affected the writing schedule as well as the quality. So some gr
44、oup members became pessimistic. Luckily, after several discussions, even debates, with the encouragement among one another, the whole group finally reached a consensus. We divided the work of writing among us and we helped each other, encouraged each other in the process of 7writing. At the last min
45、utes we efficiently completed the paper. BibliographyAssignment 4: Term PaperIn this part, you should do research into one instance of intercultural communication, and analyze it by employing the relevant IC theory/ theories learnt in the course.
