Lesson Plan: Observe and Analyze: Photos and Culture
By Ann Williams, Professor of French, Metropolitan State College of Denver

The learning of culture can be seen as both horizontal (students learn about a variety of cultural categories) and vertical (students learn in-depth about some or all of these categories). The following activity serves to guide the students through both the horizontal and vertical learning processes. As they look at a photo of French cultural phenomena they are helped by their instructor to see first the concrete nature of culture and then to look beyond the surface to find the values and lifeways that give rise to what they see.
