This lesson outlines the different cognitive processes and how they shape our learning. The video, 30 Days: Immigration(opens in a new tab), provides an example of how anti-immigrant views can be shaped and changed with direct interactions with the immigrant community. View the film and answer the following questions in one single, cohesive essay.

Provide an overview of the video.

• Using the information in Modules 5.1 and 5.2, identify which cognitive processes of attention, memory, language and learning (including schemas, assimilation and accommodation) shaped Frank's views about immigrants prior to staying with the Gonzalez family.
• Discuss whether these same cognitive processes change after his stay with the family.
• Reflect on a personal experience that caused a major change in your thinking about a person, group or situation.
