Titel 3 Tilladte hjælpemidler til eksamen og terminsprøver

At the exam it is forbidden to use the internet for random googling! The use of any kind of chatbot or AI is also strictly forbidden. The only things on the internet you may use are the webpages below. Download them to a word document beforehand.

Everything else you need on lectio or edulife, you must download to your computer! You may not use OneNote as it "saves to the cloud" and is therefore online, so please move relevant notes to a word document before the exam!

Remember to bring your books, your headphones, and any old assignments + compendiums you might need.

Remember that you will have to use ExamCookies at the exam, and therefore any cheating will be caught - so just please don't :)

Titel 5 4. EXAM TOPIC:The British Empire and lingua franca

The British Empire will provide the students with a better understanding of UK’s international situation today, including their relationship to the US and other English speaking countries. Furthermore, it will provide the students with a general understanding of how the English-speaking world of today was made.
During the theme, we will have a look at how the British view themselves through national anthems but we will also view the empire from the eyes of the colonized through e.g. “Gentlemen of the Jungle”.
We will explore the negative aspects of the British Empire such as the loss of identity and oral traditions that many colonized experienced through a rough examination of the modern literary movement “The Empire Writes Back”. However, we will also explore the positive aspects such as ELF and how the different cultures of the British Empire have shaped what it means to be British "today" as seen in Robin Cook's Chicken Tika Massala Speech.
The theme contains a project where the students will present a former colony in groups.
The theme contains the underlying theme: Lingua Franca

Keywords:
Empire, colonies, identity, the Proms, national anthems, ELF, pidgin, creole, Kachru’s model, the Empire Writes Back, loss of identity, loss of language, (formerly) colonized, multiculturalism.
