DIRECTIONS
For this week's discussion, please discuss the following prompt, taken from Bovee and Thill: "Think about the last three movies or television shows set in the United States that you've watched. In what ways would these entertainment products be helpful or unhelpful for people from other countries trying to learn about U.S. culture?"
Using examples from your own life experience, you should explain how, specifically, you think the entertainment products would be helpful and/or unhelpful and why. Beware of circular reasoning when preparing your response. For example, the TV program/movie ______ would be helpful because it showcases U.S. culture is not an adequate response. What, specifically, about U.S. culture does the program/movie showcase? Why would it be helpful or unhelpful for those from other countries who wish to learn about U.S. culture to learn about that particular aspect of U.S. culture?
