GO THE EXTRA INTERCULTURAL MILE 

STEP 4: Together with a partner from another school or country, discuss the pros and cons of online shopping vs. shopping (and window shopping) in person, perhaps with a friend or a family member. Guiding questions:

• What are the differences you might find in both shopping procedures (and in each country)? 

• What are the "do's" and "don't" for each of you (perhaps from different cities or different countries, different family backgrounds)?

• What are the traditional items you shop for with your parent(s) and how do you feel about that situation as a teen?

• What are the conveniences and inconveniences you encounter as a teenage shopper? What would you rather see happen?

• What are the pros and cons of online/delivery vs. shopping in person in relation to the environment?

After your discussion, connect SYNCHRONOUSLY online (using ZOOM or another communicator where you can record and download a video/audio clip) and RECORD your joint conclusions in a short presentation/talk. Post your recording on this FLIP. Max 3 minutes total recording time. Later comment on other posted videos and think how similar and how different we all are when it comes to shopping. :)
