Q:
Assignment: United States-Centric Views Comparison
Resource: Appendix D
Due Date: Day 7 [Individual] forum
Give a copy of Appendix D to a friend or family member and ask that person to complete the table contained therein. In doing so, your chosen participant will consider what he or she thinks are the common United States-centric viewpoints on Muslim and Arab American and Christian American groups. Ask your participant to return their completed appendix at least one day before this assignment is due.
Complete a duplicate copy of Appendix D yourself, following the same directions as your participant.
Compare and contrast your participant’s answers with your own, and write a 350- to 500-word summary that answers all of the following questions:
o How are your table answers similar? How are they different?
o Do either tables list descriptors in the Both Groups category? Describe.
o From either or both tables, name one or two descriptor(s) that you think represent true facts about each group and one or two descriptor(s) that you think are false.
o How do you think an average American’s perceptions of each group are created?
Post your summary in the body of a forum message, and both completed copies of Appendix D as attachments.
