In each module, we try to incorporate video, book, music, gaming, or movie media into our topics. I have collected a small list of available media for students to preview. Some items are free, and some require a streaming service subscription. Please review the ones you can, or if you know of another one that fits our topic, I would love to have it offered.
Our objectives for this activity:
Analyze and interpret a historical work of art, literature, philosophy, or religion.
Examines the relevance of appropriate contexts when examining ideas.
Effectively analyzes one's own and others' assumptions.
Demonstrate a comprehensive synthesis or analysis of issues, ideas, artifacts, or events.
These videos do not reflect the entire culture. Sometimes, I tried to find the most extreme versions to push our boundaries.
An (S) symbol will indicate material added by students. If you have one you would like me to add, message me or add it to any of your initial posts or replies.
