Assigned media

For today's instructional materials you will watch a documentary that offers examples we can explore together when going over the reading.
Recommended: watch at least first 30 minutes of the documentary before completing the assigned reading.

Complete Activity: Portfolio - Part 1
You will be asked to discuss examples from the documentary as a review of Stuart Hall's "West and the Rest: Discourse and Power" (1994).
TIP: See guiding questions on Instructional Materials tab before watching to gather some examples as you watch.

Assigned Reading

See guidelines in Asynchronous Materials tab for key terms to summarize as you read.

Complete Activity: Read and Annotate

The documentary offers several examples that help illustrate many of Lynn Stephen's main arguments from the reading, which we will discuss as a class during our meeting. Ahead of time, be thinking about possible connections between the media and reading on your own. Bring your ideas to class to share!
