Take 5-10 minutes and respond to the following prompts in a couple of sentences each, and then be prepared to discuss your responses:

1. What is the key idea or concept(s) that you chose to illustrate from one or more of the readings, i.e. what are benefits and drawback of the concept(s) you chose?
2. How the media (movie,TV show, or video game) you chose illustrates the key concept(s) you chose from the reading(s).
3. May also want to answer the question, “so what?” That is, what does reading these two (or more) text together reveal that I didn’t know before? OR/AND What does thinking these concept in multiple media/modes do that a single mode cannot?

Please complete the following:

1. Put your hardcopy or digital copy of your posters on your desk tops.
2. Next, half the class stay with your drafts and the other half of the class circulate from draft to draft.
