Improvement Details

DetailsTo provide a new learning experience, I had my students watch a new documentary entitled "Black Indians: An American Story," produced by an all Indian production company. I wanted them to understand the complications of cultural and racial fusion. Their assignment was to then write an essay giving their impressions of the documentary. Ninety-one percent of the class received full credit for the assignment with fifty percent of them doing an excellent job.
