Movie Analysis : The Beginning Of Class

A League of Their Own (Marshall, 1992) explicitly characterizes an American era when a woman’s place was in the home. Even our modern perspective implicitly follows suit. Although women have gained rights and freedoms since the 1930’s, sexism remains prevalent in America. This film offers an illustration when men went to war and big business men utilized women as temporary replacements in factories, sports, and so on. Here, course concepts, such as gender socialization, gender expressions, role stereotypes, emotion expressions, and language, correspond to the film’s characters and themes.

Nonetheless, the professor would be more likely use PowerPoints and clickers to keep their students actively involved in the lesson. Concerning these forms of technology, John Freie and Susan Behuniak, two professors at Le Moyne College in Syracuse, New York, wrote an essay on the effectiveness of technology being used for education. During their essay, “Paulo Freire and ICTs: Laboratory Education Theory in a Digital Age,” they suggested that a teacher’s usage of PowerPoints and clickers in the classroom followed Paulo Freire’s idea of banking education, where teachers control their students learning by depositing information onto students without encouraging students to apply that information onto their reality. Freie and Behuniak expressed that PowerPoints “subtly imposes a gossamer image over what is, at base, oppressive control (343).” In other words, the professors of Le Moyne College are proposing that PowerPoints are used to only to grasp students’ attention because of visual aspects, yet it still keeps the instructor in control at all times because they are the presenter of the information being given from the PowerPoint and only use lecture to pass on information, thus the professors believe this is the banking concept. In this case, this proposal does have strong evidence of

During the end of the 3rd Century, the Playwright Plautus wrote many of the first Roman comedies. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a musical comedy film adaptation of Plautus's comedies.Set in ancient Rome, many aspects of Roman theatre, including stock characters, were included in the film’s production. While the film is based off of multiple comedies, Plautus's Pseudolus character Calidorus is nearly identical to the film’s Hero. During the time Pseudolus was written, the Crisis of the Third Century led to up to 25% of Roman population being comprised of slaves(Southern). Of the many stock characters Platus included in his comedies, Calidorus/Hero, the son of Pseudolus’s owner and the stock character adulescens, best

One student also commented that the video should have been more spread out since overall, it seemed crammed together. The pictures could have also been in more rapid succession so that it appears more exciting and keeps the audience’s

Daeun Cheon Prof. Michael Bouquard Dms 316 July/24/2017 The Graduate Response Paper For this week, I read the book “understanding movies” chapter two and three which is about the mise-en-scene and editing film techniques. Also, I watched two films which are called “The graduate” and “Rebel Without a Cause”. Therefore, I chose to write about mise-en-scene film technique that used in this film “The graduate.”

Not only was this my first time experiencing observation over a distance, but it was my first time experiencing a lesson in mathematics before. I have taken varying online college courses, but none of those courses were math. In the lesson, there were two college professors who were doing revisions on a previously administered Calculus test. The professors would trade off problems; while one was working on and explaining the problem, the other professor was writing and preparing for the next one. This would often be distracting when trying to stay focused on the problem at hand since the only thing visible, room wise, was the white board. While the math courses I took were generally quiet since the students would be focusing on the lesson, the video came across as a private lesson just for me, especially with how

The visuals help solidify that belief of what they are saying and it helps visual learners process the information. When Feinburg was talking about the struggles of creating Wall-E if she didn’t show the progression through slides the audience would have been lost. It builds that link between what is said and what is.

I have chosen to write on the 2007 movie "Arranged", which centers around two teachers, Rochel Meshenbers, an Orthodox Jewish woman and Nasira Khaldi, a Muslim woman, who both were first-year teachers in Brooklyn. During lunch time, Nasira and Rochel each sat alone as the other teachers sat gossiping about guys and the different parties they attended. Both women kept to themselves until, that is, the students start having a discussion amongst themselves concerning their new teachers. The students were saying they heard that the two teachers could not be friends because one was Jewish and the other was Muslim and that the Muslims wanting kill off all the Jews.

I did look back at the slides more than I should have, but I knew when to advance the slides and they weren’t in a confusing

For example, the selfie, photos and Facebook photos, etc. We went over art elements and what specific elements could we see in the self-portraits represented on the slideshow. We continued to discuss how the artists expressed who they were through their self-portraits. Next the students and I talked about how in order to improve on their artwork they would need to practice, practice, practice. I showed them a self-portrait I drew at their age and then one I painted not too long ago. During this presentation, even though students were very engaged and surprisingly expressive with their answers, I felt they were a little restless. I asked the students what could I improve upon with the lesson and they suggested a worksheet they could use to follow along and remember the artists. The approach I took by engaging the students in their educational environment is known as, progressive education. According to Sadker and Zittleman (2012), "The role of the teacher is to identify student needs and interests and provide an educational environment that builds on them" (p.

Me being a shy quiet person presentations were somewhat difficult for me. The way I would present a presentation would be thru my photography, my pictures told the story. However, as I matured the shyness went away and I found talking came easy. I was asked by a friend that worked in public relations at the Boston Globe Newspaper if I would like to give a presentation about the best ways to create memories by way of photography, producing great pictures to a group of high school student (Fontbonne Academy) that were going on a trip. At first I was reluctant being shy and all, but I agreed. I must admit it was a wonderful experience, never did I feel nervous. My presentation was about an hour long, I used visuals along with speaking. I continued

Formal Analysis of Samson Movie Introduction Samson movie is based on a biblical Story about a Hebrew who had supernatural strength. The movie, which was directed by Bruce MacDonald and Gabriel Sabloff, is a religious epic released in 2018. It shows Hebrews` enslavement by the Philistines who are led by King Balek. The only hope that the Hebrew have is Samson who was prophesied to set his people free using his supernatural strength. Samson rather chooses to lead a pious life that forbids the drinking of alcohol, touching dead bodies and cutting his hair.

Being familiar with the basics of PowerPoint helped a lot during the creation of the instructional video. This year, my fourth-grade class enjoyed a science unit on force and motion. They spent the entire unit working with hands-on models and experimenting. This required me to have instructions readily available for the students. The instructions were typed using Microsoft word. I also used my camera to take pictures of the steps for students who had trouble with written directions. To create the

While lectures are known as one of the oldest ways of effective teaching, a significant amount of studies show there are more effective ways. Adding power points to the presentation has increased the effectiveness of the basic lecture. Power points allows the student to make a visual connection. They also allow students a chance to catch up or follow along with the lecture. Some instructors give notes to the students so they may follow along at the beginning of the lecture. By using power points, the students will still have this advantage. Instructors are also aided with the power points, eliminating the need for lecture outlines. Be aware that using power point presentation will change the learning

Our presentation slides focuses more on pictures, charts and key-points for visual aid. By keeping the slides simple, audiences can focus more on the speaker. The videos uploaded by the Centre for English Language Communication department tell us our weaknesses which we do not realize by ourselves. Reflecting on my first and second presentation through videos and feedbacks from Ms. Christine has helped me
