Outstanding worksheets for video reveiws

Post by Eric18 » Tue Aug 19, 2008 5:24 am

Thanks for sharing those outstanding worksheets.

I often just have students write down the speaker, topic, and date on a piece of paper. Then students can draw a line with two columns: what I liked and What could be improved. The loose format sometimes evokes more information from students on peer presentations.

Sometimes a more detailed worksheet, of course, is required. Context matters.

Any controversy over showing "Life of Brian"?

Post by Eric18 » Mon Nov 03, 2008 5:32 pm

Alex's collection of video resources is excellent, and includes one for using "Life of Brian" - the Monty Python classic.

Has anybody else used "Life of Brian" in classes? Isn't the material a tad too controversial - at least for the more religious Christians? I don't think that I could show it in either adult or IEP classes in the United States. It would be generate too many complaints - and comedies can be especially tricky.
It's far safer - if less fun - to stick to comedies like Groundhog Day.

Any other reactions? Thoughts?
