ENG 1020 Film Review Project Trimble November 2014
Project Learning Objectives • Practice using the concepts scene, rhetorical situation, and genre with a non-academic genre • Practice using genre analysis to study texts as an array of genre features (format, content, organization, style, rhetoric)
Project Deliverables • First Draft • Genre Analysis Worksheet • Final Draft w/letter to reader
First Draft-Week 1 of 4 • formative assessment (to monitor progress) • assigned on first day of class • due at beginning of Week 2 • based on theatrically-released film from past year (no documentaries) • 400-500 words-minimal direction on format • no direction on content-”do whatever you think is required” • not graded-20% penalty on final draft if not submitted • minimal feedback on content (e.g. “I loved that part too!”)
Genre Analysis Worksheet-Week 3 of 4 • formative assessment (to monitor progress) • instructor-led analysis of sample review • each student assembles corpus of examples • use genre analysis to identify genre features (format, content, organization, style, rhetoric) in corpus • introduce general to particular pattern of analysis • students use findings to make revision plan for their own reviews
Final Draft/letter to reader-Week 4 of 4 • Summative assessment (assess achievement) • 100 points: feature-based rubric (format, content, organization, style) • letter to reader (10 points)-conversational reflection (based on Sandra Giles’ article)
