Week 6

June 23- June 28th

We have made it to the last week of summer school! The journey is almost over.

There are only a few tasks remaining to complete the course. I know some people had challenges with viewing the images, so I ensured the last assignment was one that is more feasible for everyone to obtain. You will watch one more film in the course and give an extensive analysis of pivotal themes projected throughout the movie. The film that I feel is most impactful and pertinent to the overall concepts explored in the course thus far is John Singleton's Higher Learning. However, this film is not free ($3.99) to view on various streaming platforms, so I am offering an alternative for people who prefer to analyze a film that is on YouTube. The free film is an adaption of William Shakespeare's final play, The Tempest. I will attach the link to The Tempest below.

Chapter 5

-watch Higher Learning on Hulu, YouTube, or Amazon Prime at a cost (preferred)

OR

-watch The Tempest (see the link)
