BRITISH/AMERICAN INFLUENCE ON OUR WAY OF LIFE
Teacher: The American artist Andy Warhol once said that what was the best in most capital cities of the world was the MacDonald's Restaurant and only Moscow didn't have such a nice thing. Today this is not true any longer; even in Kiev, if you feel like having an American hamburger you go to MacDonald's. Now answer the questions:
What film did you see last? Was it Ukrainian/American made? Name your favourite singers/groups. How many of them are Ukrainian?
1. Make a list of items in your everyday life that have British/ American origin.
2. Share your ideas in class (all the ideas are discussed and put down on the blackboard as a spidergram).
3. Divide the class into teams accordingly to the number of items chosen.
For example:
-
Mass Media team
-
Food team
-
Films team
-
Music team
Discuss in teams what information you want to form the basis of your
project, the way you are going to collect the information.
Possible ideas:
Mass media team, looking through TV guides, watching selected programs, doing a survey of popular newspapers and magazines.
Food team: going through the telephone director, checking how many fast food restaurants there are.
Films team: counting the percentage of British/American films in the programme.
Music team: studying pop music charts.Start collecting information. Make notes.
The core element of your project will be a survey. In teams discuss what you will ask in the questionnaire.
