Discussion 7B – It’s All About Culture
Each of the readings presents aspects of culture. Which of these cultural elements are interesting to you? Which might you want to explore more in your research and research essay? Take another look at the Research Essay Prompts (on the Research Essay Requirements page) and think about which aspects of culture that were presented in your reading might be something you’d want to consider in your paper.
