Objective:  Present a multimedia product summarizing the argument presented in the research & reflection paper.  Provide constructive feedback to classmate presentations.

Task:  As you come into class, please clear off your desk and, if you brought food, please set out your food on the side table.  We'll take a few minutes to sample all of the wonderful treats and then listen to the presentations on culture food.

After you're done eating, please get out your computer, your final exam crossword puzzle, and a playing card from Mrs. Friday.  The rest of today's class is devoted to watching and providing feedback on the arguments you've developed over the last several weeks.  As you watch the presentations, please think of at least one question to ask the presenter.  Provide feedback via email (CC to Mrs. Friday) in the following format:
