vox pop

As an international student. Do you prefer to cooperate with other international (not your compatriot) or national student in the class?

Budi(mass communication student, from CHINA)
I think we need cooperate with other(international student). We need different environment, learn different culture, exchange of(our) minds, it is good for our study.

Chen yi xuan(mass communication, CHINA)
I want to cooperate with international classmates, because I go abroad and(is) want to know more culture about another country during the discuss.

Hannah(music, Chinese Malaysian)
My target is only to find a new way to study and get a good mark. So I did not mind where they are from. Make a good success is the most important.

Yoko(mass communication，CHINA)
I like to discuss with my national friends. I do not have the language problem, that can make the work more efficient. Also, we do not need to understand each other in a hard way with different culture.

Chen Bo Lun(mass communication, CHINA)
I prefer to cooperate with my compatriot. Because（when）I cooperate with my compatriot. I would find it very convenient. We speak the same language, we have similar ways of thinking and lifestyle. Therefore, we can easily exchange. We can tacit cooperation. I've tried with other international students in co-operation. Although I share their co-operation can enhance language skills and social skills. But our cultural differences, there are too many differences. In the exchanges, there are problems. So I prefer to cooperate with my compatriot.

Pamella(a-level student ,India malaysian)
I think either is ok. With local student can discuss some local things we all know. And international students may know something we don’t know.


Conclusion:
During the interviewing, I tried to ask different students from different countries and have different major. They can give me some special answers. I only use the interviewing face to face and send SMS to someone I know. And the problem I meet is that because it was the first time I interview people I feel nervous. But soon I can enjoy it!
