The Harry Potter franchise is one of the most successful book and film franchises ever. In this course, we will select a Harry Potter topic each week and discuss the topic in depth. 

This will be a fun, interactive class that aims to both teach new information but also encourage students to develop skills such as communication, writing, and note-taking. As different opinions are expected, the class aims to create an environment for open discussion about a common interest. This should help students develop social skills and build friendships. 

This class will be particularly suitable for those with an interest in books and films, particularly the Harry Potter series. It would also be suitable for those studying creative writing, film & media, or English. An interest in the Harry Potter series would be helpful for this particular course.
