AGENDA Nickel and Dimed Socratic Seminar “Shooting an Elephant” Intro to Documentary Unit HW: MC “S.A.E.” for TOMORROW

HOMEWORK for TUESDAY Take home your MC from “Shooting an Elephant” and justify the CORRECT answers for the ones you got wrong (to be completed on the blank side of the paper). TURN IN TOMORROW FOR GRADE.

Warm-Up (20 November 2015) Start making a list of in-text evidence from “Shooting an Elephant” and from your personal experience for the following prompt: What drives us as humans to commit wrongful acts?

Socratic Seminar – (15 min) Orwell observes that “when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys.” What drives us as humans to commit wrongful acts? How does Orwell’s story support his claim?

In CN: [Documentary Pre-Write] If you were to write, direct, or star in a documentary, what would the topic be and why would you choose it? What role would you play? Who/what/how would you provide evidence or sources to support your claim?

Group Discussions 1.What are your general thoughts/feelings about documentary films? 2.What, if any, documentaries have you previously watched? 3.What is the purpose of a documentary film? 4.How might studying and analyzing a documentary film connect to AP Language class? 5.What are your general feelings toward Global Warming?

Purpose of Documentary Documentaries: “… build on the visual world of our students while at the same time these nonfiction films focus on substantive, often controversial, issues that affect students' lives.” Goal: Deeper appreciation of documentary film, stimulates further conversation about documentaries and nonfiction, and leads to more effective and innovative classroom practices. Source: Renee Shea " Using Documentary Film as an Introduction to Rhetoric"

Connection to AP Lang. Three main components: Nonfiction, visual culture (media), argument For the director to achieve his purpose, he must understand the audience and appropriate appeals -- ie: the rhetorical situation We are focused on " becoming conscious of how rhetoric works [to] transform speaking, reading, and writing, making us more successful and able communicators and more discerning audiences." (Hepzibah Roskelly, "What Do Students Need To Know About Rhetoric?" AP Central).
