American study Name: Meriyah (2009120030) Section D Lecturer: Mrs.

Luz Ismail

Please respond to the following questions: 1. How do you see the flow of your learning in this course from the

readings, movies, and class discussions? The flow of American study courses was enjoyable because the lecturer always make the athmosphere in the classroom become comfort and fun. I never had the difficulties in collecting the assessment because it was not complicated to do. Honestly I am still curious about the

connection between the topic and the activity such us news flash, speech, etc related to American studies. Actually I like newsflash activity because it is one of my dream to be a news reader. My passion to learn American study courses is because I am curious about all the aspcects that made America become the modern and powerful country in the word. I am so .. (miris) to know about the history of education in America where racism made the African American got the difficulties to get educational acces (pendidikan yang layak).

2. Are there any beliefs or attitudes that are being challenge or validated (honest judgment)? Do you reflect on these ideas? Do you talk to other members of the class and outside the class? Youth American community are quite rude that was the first judgement that come in my mind about situation of the society in America. Because most of the Hollywood movies figure out the youth American misbehave or violence.

From this course I am still try to find the answer is that correct or wrong. Sometimes I talk with my friend about America such us the president and any political issue such us Americans Attack to Libya.

3. What are issues that are still unresolved in your mind? How should the issues be addressed in the future class? I am still curious about the latest issue in America nowdays expecially about youth American in developing their education. I want to know what is the aspects or key point that makes America become the greatest country in the world. I also curious about condition of the origin citizen of America (Indian). On the next class I hope I will get more references about the latest news in America and then doing discussion about the issues. I think in American study we need more references like the visitors from American embassy to tell a brief about America and we can ask anything to them so it will make my friends and I convince about the story about America because we have valid resources.

life society, education, culture in America now days and what are the causes of some changes in America into great progress that has been achieved by modern American. I want to learn alot about any improvement that has been develop in America because I want to make any progress in my beloved country, Indonesia, because I think Indonesia is a great country that has prospective to be as great as America.
