Students will make connections to emerging global themes, e.g., poverty, economy, environment, etc. by examining diverse perspectives as they relate to the language and culture being studied.
Students will focus on understanding one product (books, art, food, clothing, music, etc.) of a culture related to the language being studied and the perspectives (attitudes, meanings, values, etc.) that are revealed through the use of the product chosen.
Students will present information, concepts, and ideas to persuade someone about a topic using appropriate media and adapting to various audiences of listeners, readers, or viewers.
