1. Watch ‘Parasite’ and write a reflective paper describing what you learned from the movie. In your reflection, connect the movie to the class activities, readings, and/or assignments. This assignment will be graded using the Rough Guide on Reflection. In this framework, you will want to consider the ‘what,’ ‘so what,’ and ‘now what’ of the movie you watched in terms of your cultural learning. Consider the following questions: What did you learn from the movie? Does it reflect the cultural values you expected? How are these values different than or like your own? How has the movie influenced how you will approach future intercultural interactions while abroad? If you cannot watch the movie please see – https://www.studiobinder.com/blog/parasite-movie-analysis/#:~:text=One%20clear%20way%20to%20explain,contribute%20to%20this%20central%20theme.
