Case: Read the questions before you watch the film so you will know what to look for as you watch. Take breaks during your viewing of the film, as needed, so you can take notes (on a separate sheet) without missing any content. After you have watched the film, please respond with detail and accuracy to the questions below. Make sure that your answers are complete, comprehensive, and solidly demonstrate your understanding of how the film's content relates to what we are learning in the course-this is where your notes will come in handy! Be sure the topic sentence of your first paragraph uses key words from the question, and always define and explain terms you pull from our text or other scholarly course resources. All responses should be written in complete sentences and be relatively free of writing/mechanics errors.
Provide the title of the film, the release date, and the writer/director.
Describe the central message of the film in your own words. Provide examples from the film to support your choice.
List several facts that stood out for you from the film and explain why they were significant to you. In other words, provide your subjective response to the ideas in the film.
List three major concepts/ideas from the film and discuss how each relates to our course material. Be specific, be detailed, be accurate in your application of the text (and other course resources) and cite your sources.
List and describe aspects of society and culture from our text and other course resources that are demonstrated in the film. Provide evidence from the film to support your choices and explain the connections in detail.
Describe an aspect of the film that showed you something you hadn't seen before, caused you to think in a new way, or helped you understand something more deeply than before. Describe how your thinking was changed. Support this reflection about your learning with details from film AND from our text and other course resources. Cite your sources.
You will likely need to view the film you choose to analyze more than once to cite content most accurately. You should be prepared to rent or borrow videos either through an online source or from a library or video rental source. The instructor will provide free sources, when possible, but these may not always be available. You will be responsible for watching ALL of the films on your own (for homework) but you will only need to analyze ONE film (of your choice) for the analysis assignment. You must watch all that films because we will discuss how each one relates to relevant theories and milestones from the text and other course resources. The list of films is as follows"
The list of films is as follows:
Life Before Birth-In the Womb
Babies (no link provided)
The Business of Being Born (no link provided)
The Biology of Dads
Consuming Kids
Inside the Teenage Brain
The Suicide Plan
For whatever film you choose to analyze from the list above, the requirement is to clearly and accurately explain how each film addresses concepts and theories from relevant chapters of the text and other relevant course resources. You will use the film analysis sheet, found in "Course Resources", to provide specific details from the film and explain how that information relates to what we are learning from the course. The exact questions from the analysis sheet must be included, so you MUST use the sheet provided OR copy and paste the exact question number and question to your document. Successful completion of the assignment is dependent upon accurate application of theories and milestones from our course, as well as use of the exact questions.
