Cultural and International Diversity
First, choose a university or college (4-year degree granting institution) in the country of your birth (if born in the USA do not choose Hood College)
Second, choose university or college (4-year degree granting institution) NOT in the country of your birth which speaks a language other than English (for example, Australia, New Zealand, England, and parts of Canada primarily speak English)
a) Compare the difficulty in finding the College Catalog at each university (difficulty is a subjective measure that you determine) and why did you choose that level of difficulty? (5 points)
b) Does each college offer internationalization, such as choice of language? (5 points)
c) Use Google Translate (https://translate.google.com/ ) to translate a non-English college website
page to English. How would you rate the translation (rating is a subjective measure that you determine) and why did you choose that rating?
Solution
Solution:
We have taken University of Melbourne,Australia and second one is Freie University,Berlin,Germany
a) It is easy to search the catalog of University of Melbourne as the language used there is familiar to us while the Freie University, Berlin is in German language due to which finding the catalog is very difficult. Even if by guessing we reached the right page, there will be no surity for us that it is the correct page as the language there is not known to us. The rating would be difficult from our side, as the information is not available with ease.
b) Yes, each university is offering choice of internationilzation and running various courses in different languages to the students of different countries and regions like the Freie University, Berlin is offering graduate and post graduate courses of different streams in English also which is an international language.
c) When we used the Google Translator to translate the site of Freie University, Berlin, we find that the translation obtained is correct and conveying us the proper meaning which the Freie University, Berlin is trying to convey in German language. We did not find any such mistake that can be specially pointed out in the translation when we used Google Translator. The rating from our side will be easy, as the translation helped us perfectly to get the correct information with ease.
