CRITICAL & CREATIVE THINKING

I really like the videos, it was gratifying to know about stereotypes of other countries. According to the task number five, we have to talk about Colombian stereotypes.

It in order to see if they fill in a situation in specific and, make the decision and actions work. 

The emotions that are most difficult to manage when others disagree with me are:  The anger Indifference   I deal with these by:  I just take a time to get relax, then i just respect their opinion. Not everyone will think the same way that I do.  The influence on my own thinking that I need to be most aware of so they don't prejudice my thinking are: To put the money over everything. Not believing everything they tell me. I will deal with this by: Taking into account the opinion of my partners The thing I find most difficult about challenging the opinion of other people are: Not to have a supporting point, like research, authors, etc. I deal with it by: Look for information.
