Class 08 The Ought-to Self & The Ideal Self
Summary: First, we discussed the variety of self-selected readings or viewings you can take notes on for homework. Studying one instead of two materials per class is fine. Then, you took notes about answering these questions in the Google doc that you can include for your midterm report.

Homework due on Tuesday at 1 p.m. before Class 09:
- Please choose a reading or viewing that complements your research for your L2 motivational self system report that will also be useful for your final presentation. You will write about your L2 self system based on the questions generated from the homework we will do for Class 10, and use all the notes you have taken to save time. And three sets of notes if you could not do the homework on Class 07:
