  1. IOP – a student guide 2011 Tuesday, 23 August 2011

  2. A new course… • The Individual Oral Presentation • A 10-15 minute presentation with Q+A • The focus is chosen by the students and is inspired by the reading undertaken in term 1 • The texts focus on the literature of World War 1. • Both HL and SL read three texts.

  3. Text 1 • ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT (Remarque) • A semi autobiographical response to the war which follows a group of friends as they enlist and serve in the trenches. • Originally written in German it provides a perspective on the war which is not otherwise studied. • Students will need to purchase a copy.

  4. TEXT 2 • A selection of poetry by Owen and Sassoon will be studied and students will be expected to research the relationship between these two men. • Students will be expected to undertake wider reading of poetry. • Whilst analysis will be expected, students will need to develop a personal response to the ideas raised by the poems. • The poems will be found in the anthology UP THE LINE TO DEATH which the school will provide.

  5. TEXT 3 • A section from LETTERS FROM A LOST GENERATION, which follows the correspondence of Vera Brittain with her fiance, her brother and a close family friend. • The only non-fiction text studied. • Students may choose to respond to these letters in the form of a more creative presentation or to use them as a comparison with the other texts.

  6. TEXT 3: dramatis personae • Vera Brittain1893-1970: Served as a nurse in WW1, after which she became famous as a feminist, pacifist and writer. • Roland Leighton 1895-1915: Her fiance. • Edward Brittain 1895-1918: Her younger brother, killed at the very end of the war. • Geoffrey Thurlow 1895-1917: A family friend • Victor Richardson 1895-1917: A school friend of Edward, a family friend
