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

Dette forløb har været centreret omkring fantasygenren i skønlitteratur. I løbet af forløbet har eleverne læst og arbejdet med uddrag af betydningsfulde værker inden for genren, såsom The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe og Harry Potter-bøgerne. I forbindelse med dette arbejde har eleverne stiftet bekendtskab med karakteristiske træk for fantasy-genren, heriblandt:

- Den typiske fantasy-setting
- Den typiske fantasy-hero
- Andre arketypiske karaktertyper
- Den typiske fantasy-structure
- Magical inventory
- Forskellige sub-genrer af fantasy

Den anvendte terminologi i forløbet er hentet fra bogen Worlds of Fantasy af Anne Mette Finderup og Agnete Fog (Systime, 2005).

Foruden arbejdet med romanuddragene, har eleverne også arbejdet med filmadaptionen af Neil Gaimans Coraline. I den forbindelse er eleverne også blevet introduceret for udvalgte filmtekniske virkemidler og Hollywood-modellen i film. De har i forlængelse af dette arbejdet med forskellige fantasy-elementer og cinematic techniques i filmen i et gruppeprojekt, som de har fremlagt med slides på klassen.

KEYWORDS: parallel world (open fantasy), secondary world (closed fantasy), co-existing worlds, fantasy hero, protagonist, antagonist, villain, wise sage, helpers, moment of recognition, point of no return, quest, happy ending, magical inventory, high fantasy, stop motion, foreshadowing, narrative technique, symbolism, rhyme scheme, The Hollywood model, cinematic techniques.

Titel 2 The American Dream

Forløbet har været bygget op omkring the American dream og USA som ”the land of opportunity”. Forløbet har været opdelt i to underemner:
- Del 1: Immigration and American values
- Del 2: Inequality of opportunity and Black voices

I del 1 har eleverne arbejdet med immigrationen til USA i det 19.-20. århundrede. Dertil har de gennem arbejdet med en række bærende amerikanske værdier opnået en forståelse for hvordan individets mulighed for succes gennem hårdt arbejde, selvstændighed og vilje (can-do-spirit) er et bærende element i den amerikanske drøm.

I del 2 stiftede eleverne først bekendtskab med USAs "Charters of Freedom" gennem citater fra the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence og the Bill of Rights med det formål at give dem en bevidsthed om det historiske grundlag for borgerrettigheder og diskrimination i USA. Efterfølgende arbejdede de med tekster der har belyst udviklingen i sortes rettigheder fra the Civil War (”The Gettysberg Address”) og til og med nutidens Black Lives Matter-bevægelse.
  
Der er gennem forløbet blevet lagt særlig vægt på at træne eleverne i at analysere non-fiction og særligt retorisk analyse, men de har også arbejdet med et digt og en film. Fokuspunkter for det analytiske arbejde har været S.O.A.P.S., argumentation, language, intention, samt wider contexts.

KEYWORDS: Freedom, equality, individualism, can-do-spirit, volunteerism, patriotism, psychology of abundance, the Frontier, the American dream, abolition of slavery, the Reconstruction Era, segregation, Jim Crow laws, lynchings, The Civil Rights Movement, Ku Klux Klan, rhetorical/poetic devices, S.O.A.P.S., modes of appeal, Toulmin’s model of argumentation, the 13th Amendment, police brutality, code-switching, Black Lives Matter.

FORLØBETS MÅL:
1. Opnå en grundlæggende indsigt i vigtige historiske, kulturelle og samfundsmæssige forhold i USA
2. Kunne redegøre for, analysere og fortolke/vurdere et udvalg af tekstgenrer (særligt poetry og retorik) med brug af fagsprog og akademisk metode (PEE-struktur).
3. Være i stand til at bruge en grundviden om historiske, kulturelle og samfundsmæssige forhold i USA til analyse og perspektivering ift. aktuelle forhold i landet og tekster om emnet.
4. Opøve og kunne anvende et ordforråd af fagfaglige ord til at snakke sammenhængende om en række almene og faglige emner inden for forløbet.
5. Opnå træning i at diskutere sagligt mundtligt og på skrift.

GRAMMATIK:
- Adjektiver versus adverbier
- Genitiv
- Sprogopgaver: omskrivning af verbaltider, sproglige/grammatiske fokuspunkter i tekst, semantisk felt, skriv tekst til billede med grammatisk fokus
- Kongruensreglerne (repetition)

Titel 5 EKSAMEN: First Chapters and Beginnings

Purpose:
In this course, the students have worked with the first chapters and openings of authentic novels in English. The course has centered on a compendium of theory regarding first chapters. Among other things, there was a focus on the opening lines of various novels. After reading and analyzing some well-known first chapters, the students selected a novel of their own choice to read in its entirety. This reading assignment culminated in an oral presentation in a format similar to the oral exam. The course placed high demands on the students’ independence in terms of reading the novel and planning their individual oral presentations for me.

Important words and terms: story world, suspense, cliffhanger, dialogue opening, odd-narrator opening, opening with a thought-provoking statement, opening with dramatic events, opening with descriptive passages, look-back hook, statement-of-fact openings, openings with raw emotion, in medias res, openings with immediate interruption to normality, ways to establish a bond with the reader via the lead character (identification/empathy, sympathy (jeopardy, hardship, the underdog, vulnerability), likeability, inner conflict), main kinds of conflict (inner, personal, social, cosmic).
