SPRING 2014 IMOVIE EVENTS

English 103 SBCC students in lab working on IMovie

2013 student work - PPs, IMovies

After seeing "Rabbit Proof Fence," in the Spring class of 2014, we generated a list of vocabulary words pertaining to the question - 'what does oppression look like in the movie?   We named all the ways that groups are stripped of their decisions, language, history, culture.....  After that I explicitly asked the students to take into consideration what they saw and predict what they thought the lives of the indigenous aborigines would look like today/the future.  I took down all the words - poverty, sickness, depression, rebellion.......   I then played "Our Generation" and we identified reality by matching the language.  In this way, students learn that oppression, voicelessness, marginalization of any group.... results in certain political and social realities.  And below they tell PowerPoint stories.
