HUM401 M5A2 Discussion - The American Dream

Assignment 2: The American Dream

After reading the two texts for this module, post your response to the following questions:

• What does the American Dream mean to you personally? Do you think it is an achievable ideal, or not?
• Compare your experiences with those described in the readings. Which do you find more accurately to represent the real experience of American life and promise? Why?

Submit your responses to the appropriate Discussion Area. Start reviewing and responding to your peers’ posts as early in the module as possible. Expand on your classmates’ posts to critically engage in the discussion. You can ask a question, post a comment, or add a point to expand the discussion. Write your initial response in 3–4 paragraphs.

By Sunday, February 7, 2016, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through Wednesday, February 10, 2016, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.
