Deadline May 2014 – Project Begins August 2014 - Funding/ Spending for Design Ends January 2015 – Course Begins

THE TASKS Design Revamp the website and make it more user-friendly, more student friendly Introduce myself to the students through a ‘welcome’ video Create links between different components of the course, areas of the website Make it easier to negotiate the website, by providing an online tour taking them through all the various areas

Tasks cont’d Pedagogy Film 1701 Course Glossary Materials Improve the pedagogical approach and learning experience (making learning more ‘experiential’) Rewrite instructions, course objectives, learner objectives Create assignments that would foster greater student engagement and participation Create an online glossary to which students could contribute their own definitions of concepts, theories and terms used throughout the course – Create a textbook specifically designed for this course, that would be interactive Film 1701 Course Glossary Materials Introduction Book Chapter 1: The Western

Tasks cont’d Encourage students to be more independent, self- guided in their learning Create a greater sense of online community in the course itself and the individual tutorials Discussion Forum #3 1) What do you suppose is the significance of the MC character (played by Joel Grey), in Cabaret in relation to the performances, but also what's going on outside the club?

Tasks Design: Redesigned the lectures, adding imagery to existing audio podcasts Enhanced the sound quality of the podcasts Made the website pretty and fun to use – for example using movie theatre marquees for the film links

How did we manage?

Less Discussion, more work Some things went well, some things, not so well… We learned a lot for next time Time constraints Delegation of tasks Less Discussion, more work More awareness at of practical realities of university course management and teaching More communication between faculty, department and course directors

Feedback ……Personally I really enjoyed Week 4, the Crime Films. The Gangster Films we discussed were Gun Crazy and Bonnie and Clyde. I was never really interested in movies like that, but really enjoyed watching those two films …..I found the discussion forum quite interesting because I was excited to read the different opinions…. ….. I really enjoyed both films in Week 3, which were 42nd Street and Cabaret. I am a fan of musicals and had never seen either film before and they both left a good impression.. ……This course has forced me to watch movies I wouldn't ordinarily have been drawn to. And that is a very good thing….

More Feedback …The lecture for Week 6 on Planet of the Apes was my favourite because I found that it sparked a lot of critical thinking towards movies and the subtexts in which I never realized existed before. It has made me more conscious while watching movies to think about what is being implied or critiqued…. …I'm glad I took this course because honestly I wouldn't have watched any of these films otherwise. All in all I enjoyed most of the films and lectures… …I felt that all the films we watched complimented each other and built upon the theories and lectures to give me a better understanding of film in general and how it reflects the socio- political climate of the times…

Feedback cont’d …Such a fantastic selection of films we watched this term…All of these films left such an impression on me… …What always interested me most was the background information Dr. Helfield did on the actors. I would always be on another tab reading up on the actors and how they were connected while listening to those parts of the lecture… ….It has been an amazing course!....

AND NOW…. A brief demo of Film 1701!
