Titel 1	The American Dream In this course we have focused on the notion of the American Dream. We have looked at the American Consitution and defined how the American Dream aligns with the general mindset of the American citizen. We have read about several American 'dreamers' - i.e. people who have lived the dream - and gone from the bottom to the top of the 'food chain'. The students have worked with web questing, group work with work questions/tasks, and prepared group presentations on pre-chosen 'dreamers'. During the course we have both read articles/historical accounts on the American Dream and the Constitution, but have also watched videos and a film on the subject. Approximately 10 pages Texts: - "From Rags to Riches" Catherine Brejnholt et al. (2012) - "Den Amerikanske Drøm" Lasse Wamsler (2014) Films: - "The Pursuit of Happyness" Gabriele Muccino (2006) Grammar: - DO-omskrivning - Ligefrem og omvendt ordstilling - Retorik

Titel 2	Documentaries A factual course on documentaries. We will follow the four modus of the documentary film, as proposed by Bill Nichols in his work from 2001 "Introduction to Documentary". He lists four types: The classic, the poetic, the observing, and the interactive documentary. In addition, we'll primarily look for typical signs of authenticity and signs of fiction. The purpose of the course is to showcase the difference between factuality and fiction, and to show some general traits of the documentary genre. We will also do a few practical tasks, where the students have to film and edit a short documentary sequence. We will aspire to recognise and know the different styles of documentary, as well as being able to spot relevant signs of authenticity and signs of fiction. Texts: Bill Nichols, "Introduction to Documentary" (2001). Clips: - "Fra Colombia til USA - Sporløs på 3 minutter", DR (2015) - "The Dancing Bird of Paradise Scene from Our Planet", Netflix (2019) - "Meeting People Is Easy", Radiohead & Grant Gee (1997) Films/TV-series: - "Hip Hop Evolution", Darby Wheeler (2016) - "Ghosts of Sugar Land", Bassam Tariq (2019) - "Et helt menneske", DR (2022) - "How to with John Wilson", John Wilson (2020) Grammar: - Tællelige/Utællelige ord - Genitiv

Titel 3	Aspects of the USA - history and gun control Following the previous course on the "American Dream", we dive further into the American Constitution, this time focusing on the 2nd Amendment and the dilemma of gun control in America. We will dive into arguments for and against control on firearms, as well as look at different statistics eludicating the differences. The students have watched videos, read articles and looked at statistics, in order to first of all understand the different mindset that Americans have compared to our own view on firearms. We have also done group work, a writing exercise (business letters), and web questing. Approximately 20 pages Texts: - "6 charts show key role firearms makers play in America’s gun culture" Michael Siegel (2022) - "Carta's Corner: The American Constitution" Kristofer Carta (2022) Films/videos: - "Firearms industry scrutinized for how it markets to consumers" PBS NewsHour (2022) Grammar: - Ing-former - Adjectives

Titel 4	Stephen King & Horror In this course, we have worked with horror as a genre with a focus on the 'king' of horror, Stephen King. We have read several stories by him to learn about his traits, the way he writes, and why he is as popular as he is. To help elucidate this, we have also made a joint author profile on him. The students have worked on their analytical skills in analysing King's stories, the majority of them fictional but also a non-fictional article by him, where the major part of the course has been with group work, class discussions, web questing, and group presentations. As well as having read texts on and by Stephen King, we have also watched a film based on one of his works. Approximately 50-60 pages Texts: - "Horror", R. Drisdal & J. Riktrup Hansen, 2016. - "11 of Stephen King's Scariest Passages", J. Rossen, 2021. - "The Music Room", S. King, 2016. - "The Boogeyman", S. King, 1973. - "Why We Crave Horror Movies", S. King, 1982. - "The Silence of the Lambs" (chapter 56), T. Harris, 1988. Films/videos: - "It", A. Muschietti, 2017. Grammar: - Verber - Udvidet tid
Indhold	Kernestof: Welcome back from holiday! Webquest: We'll dive more into horror as a genre, and we'll talk about the author we'll focus on: Stephen King. We'll combine the two things we've worked with in the two previous classes: Horror and Stephen King. How is King scary? What makes his stories scary? We'll attempt reading some Stephen King horror! We'll read "The Boogeyman" :-) Afsnit "The Boogeyman" continued. Make sure to have read the text for this class :-) We'll revisit writing an essay today! We'll talk about the argumentative essay, and spend a bit of time on perfecting your writing. We'll continue on "The Boogeyman"! Make sure to have made all the tasks to and including the theme on Systime. Today we'll look at why us humans crave horror stories, according to Stephen King :-) Unfortunately, I’m sick today guys. You need to read the chapter on Systime about film analysis, which I’ve linked to below. After you’ve read it, you need to write five things one can look for, when using film analysis on Elevfeedback. We’ll sum up We’ll slightly recap film analysis, and then it’s finally movie time! We’ll finish off the film :-) We’ll analyse the film using the theory that we’ve learned :-) You must present your analyses in group order to me :-) The remaining groups will present, while the others do grammar outside :-) This Stephen King story is different from the ones we've looked at before, mostly because of its origin and release ;-) The Music Room with painting.pdf We’ll finish off ‘The Music Room’. Make sure to have read it, if you didn't finish. Welcome back from holiday! We've read quite a handfuld of Stephen King stories in our course, so today we'll try to broaden our perspectives and read something a bit different, this time an excerpt from Thomas Harris, called "The Silence of the Lambs "The Silence of the Lambs" continued. Make sure to have read the text, if you didn't finish last time. Today our focus will be on grammar, more specifically "udvidet tid" :-) Our final class together... :-(https://app.minlaering.dk/lektier?vis=234041
