1. For this discussion board you have a choice between two
different videos to watch, react, and answer specific questions.
In the subject line of your initial post, state which question you
chose to answer (Option 1 or Option 2).
Option 1: Culture and Globalization
Regardless of how much we accept technological change,
globalization and electronic communication are powerful forces.
Our diverse human culture must react to these forces in some
way. Think about some of the ways culture is connected to
globalization.
Watch the video below and discuss how culture changes with
globalization in this scene. Do past ways of living disappear
when the world becomes more technologically accessible?
Think about at least one way your city or region uses its past in
the present. Finally, consider the significance of reinterpreting
the
past
for the present.
