Read, view and discuss past and current trends in contemporary culture which may have an effect on life in the future, analyzing and critiquing via oral and/or written methods such as presentations, tests and essays. b.

Assess the future not as something pre-ordained but as something that s/he could take an active part in shaping via critique, analysis and original thought. d.
