This week’s video link there was a lot more people from Russia, and even one from Germany. The way the conversation went was less about introduction presentations. The topics of movies and career goals were inspire by different introductions. I found it interesting that in both countries movies were both very expensive and students only attend on occasion. Also, the main way people watch movies in the U.S. and in Russia is via the internet. One female from Russia said that they have access to many American films, while I don’t think I have ever seen a Russian film. The other topic was career goals. The professor in Russia said that many students are focused more on money and less on a career that interests them. From the sound of the class it seemed like that is how a majority of the students in America feel as well. Also it was discussed how our generation is very focused on having the latest and greatest gadget in both countries.
