We’ll be doing some computer work in class, so please bring a laptop or tablet if possible!
Create a two course meal for the last day of class. Course 1 is an appetizer from the convenience store (e.g., Sun Chips, Choco Pie). Course 2 is a main dish from a restaurant (e.g., tteokbokki from Yupdduk, pizza from NO MORE PIZZA). Address the following in your debate notebook:
Why are these two foods a good fit for the last day of class?
How much does each food cost? What is the nutritional information of the two foods?
What are some popular restaurants that sell Course 2 locally?
Select a film to watch during the last meal. Address the following in your debate notebook:
What makes this film a good choice for your class?
Find a quote from a movie review.
e.g., “Inside Out 2 is filled with humorous little puns and visual gags as the emotions traverse Riley’s mindscape—like a giant “sar-chasm” that opens up when Riley starts using sarcasm as a defense mechanism, or a torrential downpour of lightbulbs during a “brainstorm” session.” –A.V. Club
