Each class will focus on one media example: a singular character from a film or a TV show. In this way, even if students miss a class, we all begin from the same point the following week. Between classes there will be a small amount of homework: a film or a TV episode to watch, plus a short article to read.
Classes will begin with a short chevrutah discussion of the entire class of the homework received the previous week. Then the teacher will give a lecture about the media example of the week, mixing video excerpts with complex texts that analyze their themes and the questions they pose. Then the class will go into breakout rooms to discuss their thoughts on this week’s materials in small chevrutah groups, later coming back to share their discussions with the entire class.
