Beskrivelse af de enkelte undervisningsforløb (1 skema for hvert forløb)
Titel 1 Children's literature

This topic deals with British children's literature, with focus on "the golden age" of children's literature ( the period around 1900). While working with children’s literature analytically it is important to have the following things in mind, and therefore the focus will be the following analysis points:
Writen by adults for children – how does the adult author deal with his audience being children?
How can the target group ‘children’ be defined?
Language – what sort of language is used?
Characters – what kind of characters walk the pages of children’s stories?
Illustrations – what part do pictures play in children’s literature?
Problem – how do we as adults analyse and interpret stories that are written for children?

Titel 2 Coming of Age

I emnet "Coming of Age" er fokus på overgangen fra barn til voksen, fra 'Innocence' til 'Experience'. Teksterne belyser forskellen og overgangen (rite of passage).
I løbet af emnet bliver eleverne introduceret til basale begreber ift. analyse og fortolkning. Der er fokus på at få opbygget en fælles terminologi, som skal bruges fremover.
Emnet lægger op til en perspektivering mellem de forskellige tekster, og vi arbejder med, hvordan man meningsfuldt kan perspektivere tekster ift. tema, handling og udtryk.
Som overgang fra emnet "Crime and Violence" har vi set filmen "We need to talk about Kevin", som omhandler begge temaer.
