Beskrivelse af de enkelte undervisningsforløb (1 skema for hvert forløb)
Titel 1 Lingua Franca

English began as the language of one nation, the UK, and it gained importance as Britain became an empire. Furthermore it gave birth to a highly potent English with the foundation of the United States of America. Today English serves as a global language, a “lingua franca”, which everybody is expected to know – even in the most remote parts of the world. During this course, students are introduced to the origin and subsequent spread of the English language, as we explore the role of English today. By the end of the course, students should have developed an understanding of the connection between language and identity.
Keywords: Standard American English, African-American English, British English, Lingua Franca, Pidgin and Creole.

Titel 2 Sonnets and Love Poetry

Sonnets and Love Poetry


Med udgangspunkt i det omfavnende begreb ”Love” har elever beskæftiget med forskellige typer af kærlighed udtrykt i digte og film. Derudover er eleverne blevet præsenteret for og arbejdet med rim, rytme og oprindelse af to klassiske sonetter: den engelske og italienske sonnet.
Diskussioner omkring hvordan individet betragter kærlighed er også kommet i spil, og elever har selv skrevet kærlighedsdigte.

Yderligere fokus på stilistik i tekster såvel som afleveringer.

Titel 4 The Power of Words - An Apology

Med udgangspunkt i at blive bekendt med og anvende nye fagbegreber inden for non-fiction
stifter eleverne bekendtskab med undskyldningsretorik og de retoriske virkemidler, der bruges, når man skal enten lave en undskyldning eller en apologi. Vi arbejder med alt fra YouTube-apologier for dårlig opførsel til politikeres undskyldninger for strukturel racisme.

Forløbet inddrager også hvilket publikum/læsere der er af de forskellige SoMe platformer.

Vi bygger videre på fagbegreber og får undersøgt hvordan både ordvalg, formuleringer og kropssprog kan være med til at bygge en undskyldning op.

I forbindelse med forløbet har eleverne selv arbejdet med at skrive enten en undskyldning eller en apologi.

Andet fokus:
At bevidstgøre eleverne omkring deres egne mundtlige præsentationer og ordforråd i non-fictionens verden.

Fagbegreber inden for dette tema:

Denial
Denial is when you refuse to take responsibility or admit to your actions to avoid guilt, accountability and to protect one’s self image (saving face)


Evasion of responsibility

This method is used when someone acknowledges their actions, but tries to justify them by coming up with an excuse. There are four strategies that involve different types of excuses:

Provocation: The person justifies their actions by claiming they were provoked or pushed into doing something. They argue that their behaviour was a reaction to something that happened to them.

Defeasibility: This refers to the idea that a person's wrongful action can be justified or excused by claiming that the person didn’t have all the necessary information or understanding at the time of the action.

Accident: This method is used when an incident happens due to some things that the person couldn't control. So it wasn't on purpose, but the incident still caused problems because of some factors.

Intention: This is when a person acknowledges their actions but argues that their intentions were good, even if the outcome was negative. They justify their behaviour by focusing on their motivations.


Reducing offensiveness

This method is used to make the accusation less worse than what is being said. The accused admits that they have done wrong, but makes it seem better than how the other side describes it. There are six strategies:

Bolstering: The accused adds a positive attribute of themselves to switch the focus from the negative part, to a positive part of them.

Minimize effect: The accused emphasized that the mistake isn't a mistake that happens frequently, but it is a rare mistake that the offender has experienced.

Differentiation: The accused compares their mistake with another mistake by someone else, and therefore makes their mistake look less bad.

Transcendence: The accused justifies their actions by placing the mistake in a different or larger situation.

Victim blaming: The accused turns the board around, and blames the offender for the mistake.

Compensation: The accuser offers money, services or other goods to the offender, because they have realized their wrongdoing.


Corrective action

The perpetrator shows their regret by ensuring that what has been done, will never happen again.


Mortification

The perpetrator expresses regret, and says that they would do it differently if they could.
