Description

Introduction In this article, I describe a unit from a content-based instruction (CBI) course that focused on United States culture. The main goal of the unit was to develop learners' critical consciousnesss (Freire, 2005) and ultimately increase their target-language proficiency. In order to achieve this, students viewed The Color Purple (Spielberg, Kennedy, & Marshall, 1985), engaged in discussions about the film, and wrote a critical response to it.
