LINKING-TO-LIFE TERM PROJECT PART C
FILM REVIEW DISCUSSION POSTS
DUE on the D2L
DISCUSSION BOARD
anytime during the week of Nov 4-10th
. . . but because of Homecoming, there will not be a penalty
as long as you get it in by
11:59 pm on Monday Nov 12th.
Step 1:
View Film
& Videos and Post Commentary:
View one of the full-length films
posted in D2L: HOME, Kilowatt Ours,
Who Killed the Electric Car?, An American Nile + Last Oasis,
or
FRESH - The Movie. Also watch
two (or more)
of the shorter
videos. The films will give you background
information (and probably raise some issues) about consumerism,
sustainability, and the environment. Hopefully they will also
spark some ideas on what you might want to learn about or
investigate for your personal project.
Descriptions of the FILMS & VIDEOS available for viewing (NOTE: some of the full-length films are available only at the
streaming video links found under the MOVIE
(videos) con in D2L)

STEP 2: Discussion Board Post
-
After you've watched your full length film, post
a thoughtful 200-300 word review, commentary or critique on the
D2L DISCUSSION BOARD.
-
Then post a
second review
on ONE of the shorter videos you viewed.
-
You are encouraged to comment on other
postings by hitting reply.
-
In your commentaries, describe your personal
reaction to the film or video, what you found interesting in
it or learned from it, whether you agreed or disagreed with
various parts of its message, if you found it hopeful or
depressing, if you would recommend it to others -- and/or
anything else you would like to say.
Your posting effort will earn you up to
10 points on the Linking-to-Life
Assignment.
