Identify two values that are currently affecting American Society (they can be from the list on p. 215 or other ones that you think are important). How have historical events and/or mass media affected the values that you chose? What impact do these two values have on your professional career? How might these values affect what we believe about education and how we implement education? Your initial post should be 300 words.

One way to process the ideas presented in the Understanding and Using Evidence feature of this chapter is to first consider the major events in American life now and compare them with ideaspresent in the 1950s and 1990s. How are current events different from or similar to events that took place for past generations? How might these differences affect American values? What is on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter? How might what we watch on TV influence American values? How has technology changed the ways students think about their world? What potential does it have to change American values?

Consider the public nature ofa person's private life given the reality aspects of media programming. In what ways can reality TV possibly change the ways that students and teachers react ina classroom or think about education in general?
