Description
Class Experience
This course is designed for preteens interested in film and television, particularly stories that centre the experiences of girls and women. This is a 6 week course and club- think of it as a mix of learning about feminist onscreen representations AND a place where you can meet friends with similar interests as you! Why take this class with me? I am Ph.D. student in Gender, Feminist, and Women’s studies, with a specialization in Feminist Film Theory and I love film! I especially love stories...
Students will have inspiring conversations about brave girls. We will watch and discuss uplifting stories about girls who are courageous and stick up for what they believe in.
I am a Ph.D. student in Gender, Feminist, and Women's studies with a specialty in film. I've been teaching kids and teens for 8+ years!
Students will need to watch the weekly film before class and come prepared to discuss the themes of the week (provided the week before)
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 2 - 4 hours per week outside of class.
I have included films that are age appropriate for pre-teenagers. Please note ratings above. I have specifically chosen films that do not contain any explicit content.
A subscription to Disney+ and Netflix is recommended for easy access to films.
