Class experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Learning Objectives:
Use examples from the novel to distinguish between direct and indirect forms of satire.
Discuss how Huxley uses irony to critique and examine his own society.
Evaluate which aspects of Huxley’s futuristic society mirror those of society today.
Compare and contrast the characters of Bernard, John, and Helmholtz.
Identify allusions to historical figures, psychological concepts, and literature.
I am offering this class because I love this book. When I read it for the first time in High School (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth) it made a huge impact on my way of viewing the world. As society and technology has progressed the parallels to this novel continue to amaze. 
My experience: I have taught this book with my own children and local homeschool groups.
