Titel 1

Third Culture Kids

In this unit, the focus has been on introducing different analysis tools and applying them to different types of texts related to the topic of Third Culture Kids. The students have also been asked to reflect and discuss how their parents' choices on how and where to live have affected them in their first hand-in (assignment 1: Growing up in a globalized world). We have both worked with non-fiction (blog, feature article, TedX speech) and fiction (short stories and short film)

At the end of the unit, we have branched out thematically and presented web comics in small groups as preparation for reading a graphic novel as part of the next unit.

Core materials:

"Third Culture Kids: Citizens of everywhere and nowhere" (feature article)

"I used to live here once" (short story)

"Green Velvet" (short story)

Blog by Feroz Salam

"The Road Home" (shortfilm) https://roadhomefilm.com/

"Third Culture Kids: the impact of growing up in a globalized world" (TedX speech by Ruth Van Reken - used for assignment 1)

Bo Høpfner Clausen: "Getting Graphic" pp. 6-16 - theory introducing the genre and characteristics of the graphic novel

Grammar in focus:
- concord between the subject and the verb
- the genitive (especially how to place apostrophes correctly)
- word order

Vi har lavet filmanalyse af "American Psycho" (og kortfilmen "Vincent") samt brugt det retoriske pentagram til at analysere non-fiktion teksten "Bad or Mad". Vi har også diskuteret Stephen Kings essay "Why We Crave Horror Movies" De fleste af teksterne er samlet i kompendiet "00 Evil compendium 3g American literary history", herunder også baggrundstekst om gotikken og Freuds personlighedsmodel (fra The Gothic Universe, Systime).

Titel 5

Gender, sexuality and inequality

ONLY A DRAFT - WILL BE REVISED

Anslået antal normalsider: cirka 25 sider

I dette forløb har vi arbejdet med begreberne køn, seksualitet og ulighed primært med udgangspunkt i Storbritannien. Emnet er brugt til SRO for eleverne med engelsk A-niveau sammen med samfundsfag under overskriften "Ulighed i Storbritannien", hvor der udover køn også har været fokus på ulighed i forhold til fattigdom og sociale klasser.

Genremæssigt har vi arbejdet med fiktion, film, poesi, sang, tale og TED-talk (kun supplerende materiale). Vi arbejder i emnet også med ligestilling (herunder kvinders stemmeret) og seksualitet i moderne tid. Her lærer vi om og diskuterer blandt andet følgende koncepter: norms, normative, gender as a spectrum, non-binary, transgender, privilege, polyamory, monogamy, intersectionality, allyship
