  3. On your South Korea page, under Sports and games, there is a misinterpretation. It should be - rock=bawi, paper=bo

    On the South Korea page under the Kids Edition, the mention of the game Rock, Paper, Scissors incorrectly translated 2 words. My students said it should be bawi for rock and bo for paper.

  4. Edit "General Attitudes" for subjectivity reasons

    The “General Attitudes” section needs some attention as it reads as stereotype-driven, particularly the passage about Mexico. If this is to remain, I suggest attribution to a particular author, lest ProQuest be attributed as perpetuating stereotypes.

  5. We currently have 1-to-1 iPads at our school, and CultureGrams does not play nicely on iPads (especially when it comes to copying citations)

  8. new language added to translation option

    I have many students that speak Pashto/Pushto. This is not one of the available languages at the moment. Is it possible to add this language to the translation list? It would be most welcome.

    Please let me know how seriously this request is being taken and what the next steps will be.

    Thank you in advance.

  16. Introductory Country Videos

    Many of my students are new English Language Readers & Listeners. I am not certain that my students understand the Kids' edition. It would be nice to have a short (<5 minute) video introducing the country as well as some pertinent & popular information. This could be done for the country as a whole as well as by individual sections.

    Thank you.

    I would like the ability to set the default language to other languages and then get a dedicated url for using Culture Grams in this language. We would use this for our Seal of Biliterarcy and foreign language students.
