Phase I - American Culture

Hello Phase I

This is Blog  # 4

We just finshed watching "Defending Your Life"... a story about what might happen after you die. Did you learn anything from watching the movie?

Phase I Students

Hello, everyone.  Welcome to Blog  #3

I am glad that you all enjoyed watching "The Island". One of the issues explored in the movie is culture shock. 

When Lincoln Six Echo and Jordan Two Delta escape from their subterranean world to the surface world, they are suddenly exposed to American culture for the first time, and they experience extreme culture shock.

What are some examples of American culture that were strange to Lincoln and Jordan?

As always, I look forward to reading your comments.

"The Island" - Phase I Students

Happy Friday.  :)  Welcome to Blog  #2

I hope you are all enjoying "The Island." As you know, the movie deals with human cloning and the ethical questions that it raises.

Sometime in the future, scientists will successfully clone a human being. Please write a paragraph discussing the advantages and disadvantages of human cloning. Then tell us what your opinion is. Should a human being be cloned? Why or why not?

I look forward to reading your responses. Have a great weekend!
