It was up to me to choose the topics for our simulation and <strong>I tried to maintain my role throughout.<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>There were challenges, but on the whole, the virtual exchange went well I think.

We had some difficulties during our VE collaboration and they included poor internet connections, absenteeism, less confident people who need to be encouraged and made to feel comfortable. And of course, disagreements and how to deal with these.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Anais says that having cultural awareness with regard to other nationalities was really important. She says, \u2018the Ukrainian girl was in a terrible situation and so <strong>it\u2019s about being aware and respectful of everyone\u2019s situations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cYou need to be aware that everyone depends on their cultural background. It&#8217;s important to understand that others have other perspectives. So, what is obvious for some, may not be for others. Also regarding the way we communicate: in general, Spanish people are more extrovert, whereas others are more shy. This means you need to create a safe space for everyone to enable them to feel comfortable. I found this was a key aspect, explains Anais.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenges when participating in a virtual exchange<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>Anais says that connectivity was one fundamental point, together with some students failing to show up to the session and not maintaining their designated roles. \u201cI tried to maintain my role throughout, but not all the group did this. They became themselves again and did not necessarily keep up with the role\u2026I tried to encourage them to do this as it was an important aspect of our project.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cIn the end, we managed and made our decisions anyway. But if I do another VE like this, I would like to try to insist on this a bit more.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>She also felt a little disappointed at times because others were not so prepared for the sessions, and didn\u2019t always have a lot to say. \u2018Perhaps they were more shy and struggled with things to say.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cHowever, it was a great experience overall. <strong>I could do it all again for sure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cI learned about simulation and it opened a window for me as it was a new and interesting experience. I think others should try doing a virtual exchange because it can help you in the future. \u00a0Maybe I won\u2019t be so nervous if I have to lead something and discuss things that really matter. It is good to talk and find out about different perspectives so <strong>in the future, this was a small preparation for what is coming.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading -->\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Advice to others<\/strong> about virtual exchange<\/h2>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>\u201cGo for it, she says, \u2018I would do it all again and I would try and do better next time. I received really valuable feedback from the teachers and this is great. It prepares you for future realities. During the virtual exchange, I think you just need to read and prepare.
