Today during the China, The Chinese People, and Chinese Culture J-Term I participated in a group scavenger hunt through Chinatown to learn more about the area's role in the Houston community. During this experience, my group and I walked through Houston's Chinatown and were required to complete a list of tasks which was established by our teacher. Some of those tasks included speaking with various people, and learning about which province in China their family is from. Some other tasks included locating decorations for Chinese New Year, taking photos of some Chinese characters which we recognized, and filming a video with a stranger promoting peace and love. This experience taught me how to work with a team of people to properly and efficiently complete the tasks, and we ensured to have each other's backs so that we remained safe during the process. This fulfills the activity aspect of CAS because we were required to walk several blocks throughout Chinatown, and this fulfills the following learning outcome: Demonstrate skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively.
