The course is organized both thematically and chronologically. Each period deals with a new development in the history of consumer culture.

68. Personal Libraries (Shadowing)
Scholars build their own personal libraries to support not only particular projects but also general reading
in their field. They buy or make photocopies of materials when possible, so they can consult them frequently, mark pages and write annotation on them. When moving into a new field, they add to their collections, usually concentrating on primary texts.

71. Loggerhead Turtle (Shadowing)
It’s time for this young loggerhead turtle to go to work. We can tether turtles in these little cloth
harnesses, put them into this tank and dull swimming place. University of North Carolina biologist Ken Loman studies sea turtles that are programed from birth for an extraordinary journey. Mother turtles buried the eggs on the beach and then returned to the sea and the eggs hatch about 50 to 60 days later.

72. Paraphrasing (Incomplete)
Points: We define paraphrasing as putting a passage from an author into your own words. However,
what are your own words? How different must your paraphrase be from the original? The answer is it should be considerably different. The whole point of paraphrasing is to show you have read and understood another person's ideas and can summarize them in your own writing style rather than borrowing their phrases. If you just change a few words or add some bits of your own to an otherwise reproduced passage, you will probably be penalized for plagiarism. You should aim to condense and simplify a writer's ideas and describe them using different sentence structures and expressions. (APEUni Website / App RA #607)

73. Night Sky (Shadowing)
Nature offers no greater splendor than the starry sky on a clear, dark night. Silent, timeless, jeweled with
the constellations of ancient myth and legend, the night sky has inspired wonder throughout the ages — a wonder that leads our imaginations far from the confines of Earth and the pace of the present day, out into boundless space and cosmic time itself.

74. Language Diversity (Shadowing)
Despite a number of events in recent years devoted to language diversity, language endangerment, and
multilingualism, such as the International Year of Languages, public awareness of the issues is still remarkably limited. Only one in four of the population know that half the languages of the world are so seriously endangered that they are unlikely to survive the present century. (APEUni Website / App RA #605)

75. Job Hours
Most of us spend on average 18 hundred hours per year in our jobs, and will work for about 40 years before retirement. When you consider the amount of time spent in the office, you soon realize how important it is to feel a sense of achievement at the end of the day, rather than just meeting financial objectives.
