Week 3

Week three will began on Monday with an introduction to documentary style resources. The class will view two documentaries, one created bv a native African, displaying features of Africa, and another made from a Western perspective. After viewing both films, the we will open the classroom to discussion about what they saw in both sources. They will be asked to discuss similarities and differences in both approaches and examine bias associated with the different perspectives. After the viewing on Monday, we will let the student students begin their research for their projects. The students will work within the classroom in their groups and begin to discuss ideas on how they want their presentation to materialize. Our job during the next two weeks is to continuously assist with student questions and to sit with groups throughout period in an attempt to facilitate the beginning phases of their projects. In order to address any problems that may begin to arise during the rest of this week, the teacher will make sure that students fill out a paper with any questions or concerns they have regarding their projects. We can thus read over these issues and address them in class the next day.
