I thought it was interesting how they talked about culture being linked to the attitudes and feelings of a certain time period.
They both make learning fun that is really nice. They work well together to bring out the differences, not only in age but learning differences and how they learn and how we might learn in different ways..
It is really interesting to talk about immigration because it inphasize me to understand the theme of the worldview. From the examples of Dr Moore and Dr Tracy where their growing generations differ only one decade, I do conlude that America is building a strong history in the future. Time, culture, beliefs, religions, different ethinicity, civilizations, and other show the world view and explain how we are moving on this planet.
there are many kinds of people, difference of races or countries. although they re different, they are living on one earth. my world view can be simply just one world.
