Tell me what you believe this cartoon is trying to say. Do you agree or disagree with this idea? Try and look at this from two different perspectives. What is your perspective? What would be an adult/teacher's perspective?
From a students perspective the image is stating that the people in China and India work harder towards their studies. They don't slack off and it's almost showing that they are smarter than Americans. It could be an insult to American students who do work really hard in school. From a teacher/adult's perspective, it also may look like the cartoon is saying that China and India people are a lot smarter than us. It may show that we aren't properly educating our youth. This cartoon is just very stereotypical. I think it's showing that Americans are lazy, even though some of us work really hard to accomplish things. Now for others who are really lazy, I have no words for them. They would fit right into this cartoon.
